The Lau Chinese American History Mini Docs Project
The Lau Chinese American History Mini Docs Project showcases Chinese American stories in the Greater Los Angeles area through short documentaries. The videos feature Chinese American Angelenos and see history, culture and current events through their eyes. Historically, this group has been an underrepresented and voiceless community. It is more important than ever to preserve, represent, and share their untold stories.
Our goal is to make the mini docs easily accessible online for classes and to engage audiences at educational, community, and film festival screenings. The films are intended to educate and to provoke multi-disciplinary, intergenerational and multi-cultural conversations about the Chinese American experience. For inquiries about the project, including class, educational or community screenings, please contact UCLA Center for EthnoCommunications Assistant Director, Janet Chen at jchen@aasc.ucla.edu.
