Hong Story 29 mins | Directed by: Rick Quan He stood just four feet five and a half inches, but Y.C. Hong was a giant in the Chinese American community. As the first Chinese American immigration attorney in California and civil rights activist, Hong played an important role in fighting racist laws like the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882. Vanishing Chinatown: The World of the May's Photo Studio 28 mins | Directed by: Emiko Omori Vanishing Chinatown: The World of The May's Photo Studio brings families together: in the past by splicing together family portraits in spite of family separations due to the Chinese Exclusion Act, and in the present by reconnecting May's granddaughter with her family's legacy. These stunning photographs show San Francisco Chinatown in the early to mid-20th century, a vanishing "old Chinatown" vibrant with culture; an immigrant community becoming Americanized. Meditations on the Power of Community 15 mins | Directed by: Weiying Olivia Huang Meditations on the Power of Community is a short film, newly commissioned by the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum and featuring dance choreographed by Lenora Lee Dance and interviews with members of Boston's Chinatown community. It is presented by Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, Pao Arts Center, and Lenora Lee Dance, and was developed in response to the Museum's exhibition Shen Wei: Painting in Motion, currently on view.
