- 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.

- Creator
- Dan Kerr; Lance Tran
- Description
- Recent DC transplant Lance Tran discusses the meaning of Chinatown to him. Growing up in Missouri, he reflects on not having big celebrations of his culture. He remembers going to Chinatown for the first time in San Francisco and being struck by the sense of community and the pervasiveness of Chinese culture. Lance sees Chinatown as a way to connect with his culture, speak Cantonese, and as a place of refuge. He talks about the future of Chinatown, and hopes that the city can strike a balance between creating a place that is open and welcoming for everyone, while not displacing original residents. He says that we need to be mindful of issues like gentrification.
