A Chinatown Banquet describes the history and culture of Boston's Chinatown. It describes the diverse immigrant communities in Chinatown from the Chinese and Vietnamese to the Syrian and Lebanese. It includes topics such as the Chinese Exclusion Act, bootlegging, and gambling and locations such as The Quincy School, the Bubble Y, and the Chinese Merchants Building. These are stories of community, challenges, and successes in the face of development projects that threatened their way of life and their future growth.
This project involved the participation of youth from A-VOYCE (Asian Voices of Organized Youth for Community Empowerment) in conjunction with ACDC and producer Mike Blockstein.
