- Title
- Jeanette Chow Interview, January 26, 2020
- Date
- January 26, 2020
- Creator
- Dan Kerr; Jeanette Chow
- Description
- Native Washingtonian Jeanette Chow talks about her family's involvement in DC's Chinatown and the changes she's seen in the area. Her father came to the District as a teenager to join her grandfather in the laundry business. She remembers spending Sundays in Chinatown with her family in the 1960s and 70s, where they would get dim sum, go to the Chinese Community Church, and shop at Chinese grocery stores. Jeanette remembers how the construction of the Convention Center and the subway in the 70s and 80s changed the area and led to the growth of non-Chinese businesses. She discusses her involvement with the Eastern Wind Newsletter, the first Chinese American newsletter in DC, and reflects on a piece she wrote about the changes in the DC Chinatown community in the late 70s. She talks about the importance of affordable housing for immigrants in order to maintain Chinese heritage and culture in Chinatown. She ends by saying how the older, family organizations have to accomodate the needs of the younger generation. She also thinks it's important for families to educate children in Chinese language and culture.

- Title
- Kai Walther Interview, May 21, 2020
- Date
- May 21, 2020
- Creator
- Kai Walther; Dan Kerr
- Description
- Kai Walther recently graduated from American University. Covid-19 cut their senior rugby season short. They had to take classes online and celebrate their commencement virtually. Kai lives in an 800 square foot apartment in DC with three other roommates and feels restricted, unable to go on trips, freely travel outside, visit museums, cafes, or friends. They face major hurdles finding work in the field of public history now that all the museums are closed. They feel it is difficult to stay motivated. Kai’s three roommates have kept them going. They spend more time together, play board games, cook together, and have gone on bike rides. Zoom has also allowed Kai to attend virtual birthday parties, have movie nights with friends, and have family events. Zoom, however, is imperfect because it only allows one person to talk at a time. Kai hopes we learn the importance of government support in health care as the most vulnerable are currently receiving the least amount of support. Kai also asks that people wear masks to protect those who are more at risk. This video is part of the Humanities Truck's From Me To You: A Covid-19 Oral History Project. https://humanitiestruck.com/frommetoyou/
