Chinatown
has been mystified and misunderstood.
Like Chinese and Asians
are marginalized in North America.
All Chinatowns in North America
are a safe haven for newcomers
to speak a familiar language
to taste familiar food
and to help newcomers
and their descendants
integrate into the community.
We will go to
Chinatowns in the United States and Canada
introduce them all to you.
In this video
three others and I
will talk about our Chinatown memories.
The familiar Chinatown
located between the Los Angeles River
Highway 110 and 101.
Established in 1938.
We will have another video
on Chinatown's history.
