CEHHS in the News

Inspired by a 100-year old photograph in the belongings of his great Uncle Kim, author Russell Low will share his decades-long search to find the stories behind the image.  Low will share the story of Ah Ying, and illustrate Chinese American history from the building of the Transcontinental Railroad to the devastating effects of the Chinese Exclusion Act and subsequent slave trafficking of young Chinese women.  A story rooted in a strong, resilient protagonist, the story encourages everyone to explore their roots and celebrates what makes us uniquely American.
