Event: Book talk on "San Francisco's Chinatown: From Suffering to Celebration"
Date: October 28, 2020
Time: 7 pm - 8:30 pm
Topic: This Zoom book talk will contain a slideshow and commentary to hear about God's hand
of restoration and redemption over San Francisco's beloved Chinatown. The overview is based
on a newly-released photo documentary book by photographer Dick Evans and journalist Kathy
Chin Leong.
This talk is presented by Kathy Chin Leong from Peninsula Bible Church, Cupertino. She
will detail how discrimination, racism, drugs, sex and labor trafficking started when the
community began in the 1800s. Spanning past to present, the slideshow presents behind-the-
scenes observations of the oldest and largest Chinatown in North America. See inside
a crowded tenement apartment, see a dragon boat practice led by high schoolers, see
preparations of a Chinese opera, and more. You will be encouraged and inspired to see
Chinatown through God's loving eyes.
