Boston’s Chinatown has long been the physical, economic, and cultural center for Chinese immigrants. Chinatown has also long fought for community control of affordable housing and economic justice. Join us for a conversation about the story of Parcel C, Chinatown’s success in fighting against institutional expansion and reclaiming this parcel for community use.
Panel will feature: Michael Liu, Author of Forever Struggle: Activism, Identity and Survival in Boston's Chinatown; David Moy, Hyams Foundation; Lydia Lowe, Chinatown Community Land Trust; Carolyn Chou, Asian American Resource Workshop; Moderated by Margaret Woo, Northeastern University School of Law.
