think.kera.org 57

The history of Chinese immigration to the U.S. tends to focus on the West Coast, leaving out the deep roots in the American South. Filmmaker Larissa Lam joins host Krys Boyd to tell the story of one man’s journey to document his Chinese family’s history in the Jim Crow South. Her documentary made with Baldwin Chiu is “Far East Deep South” and is available now on the World Channel and PBS.org.
