DESCRIPTION:A special screening of Chinatown Rising, followed by a discussion with 
 Joshua Chuck, producer and director. \n\nChinatown Rising is a documentary 
 film about the Asian-American Movement from the perspective of the young 
 residents on the front lines of their historic neighborhood in transition. 
 \n\nAgainst the backdrop of the Civil Rights Movement of the mid-1960s, a 
 young San Francisco Chinatown resident, armed with a 16mm camera and 
 leftover film scraps from a local TV station, turned his lens onto his 
 community. Totaling more than 20,000 feet of film (10 hours), Harry Chuck's 
 exquisite unreleased footage has captured a divided community's struggles 
 for self-determination. Through publicly challenging the conservative views 
 of their elders, their demonstrations and protests of the 1960s-1980s 
 rattled the once quiet streets during the community's shift in power. 
 Forty-five years later, in intimate interviews, these activists recall 
 their roles and experiences in response to the need for social 
 change.\n\nNR, 85 mins., 2021.\n\nDirected by: Harry Chuck and Joshua Chuck 
 \n\nProduced by: James Q. Chan, Harry Chuck, Joshua Chuck \n\nDirectors of 
 Photography: Harry Chuck, Anson Ho \n\nEditor: Greg Louie \n\nMusic: Miles
