SUMMARY:There’s No Stopping to My Thoughts: A Community Play & Panel Discussion
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vckit_image_banner title=”” tutorial=”” image=”6543″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]There’s No Stopping to My Thoughts is a community-based\, script-in-hand\, interactive theatrical experience inspired by the life and aspirations of self-taught visionary artist Leon Kennedy.  A 75-year-old black man who paints prodigiously on anything\, Leon has called Oakland home for more than half a century\, and strives towards painting a mural in the city.  A long-time friend’s betrayal and a fellow artist’s conflicting aesthetics leaves him running in place\, struggling to survive in a new economy where his gift remains in the shadows.  Actors will largely be members of the community.  The fictionalized script is informed by firsthand narratives collected from story circles held at OACC\, and conversations with Leon Kennedy and his community. The play will be followed by a community panel discussion around key themes involving the play creators and various community partners. \nClick Here to RSVP \nPlaywright: Bonnie Wai-Lee Kwong \nDirector: Michael Mansfield \nProducers: Bonnie Wai-Lee Kwong\, Cleavon Smith and Michael Mansfield \nArt Exhibition Curator: Cleavon Smith \nPresented by the Oakland Asian Cultural Center as part of its Artist In Residence program.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:Lecture by Chef David Soohoo & Book Talk With Author Professor Gordon H. Chang
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_separator][vc_column_text] \n[/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Click here to RSVP” style=”flat” color=”orange” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eventbrite.com%2Fe%2Fbook-talk-ghosts-of-gold-mountain-tickets-58873119084%20||target:%20_blank|”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text] \nGordon H. Chang will present a talk about his newest book GHOSTS OF GOLD MOUNTAIN: The Epic Story of the Chinese Who Built the Transcontinental Railroad\, a groundbreaking account that draws on unprecedented research to recover the Chinese railroad workers’ stories and celebrate their role in remaking America. An invaluable correction of a great historical injustice\, GHOSTS OF GOLD MOUNTAIN returns these “silent spikes” to their rightful place in our national saga. Q&A and a book signing to follow. \nGordon is the Olive H. Palmer Professor in Humanities and Professor of History at Stanford University\, where he also serves as director of the Center for East Asian Studies and codirector of the Chinese Railroad Workers in North America Project. Chang is the author of Fateful Ties and editor of four other books. He lives in Stanford\, California. \nFrom across the sea\, they came by the thousands\, escaping war and poverty in southern China to seek their fortunes in America. Converging on the enormous western worksite of the Transcontinental Railroad\, the migrants spent years dynamiting tunnels through the snow-packed cliffs of the Sierra Nevada and laying tracks across the burning Utah desert. Their sweat and blood fueled the ascent of an interlinked\, industrial United States. But those of them who survived this perilous effort would suffer a different kind of death—a historical one\, as they were pushed first to the margins of American life and then to the fringes of public memory. \nPre-talk lecture by Chef David Soohoo from 1 – 2 PM \n“The Diet of The Chinese Railroad Builders” \nLearn about the culinary findings of the early Chinese pioneers who built the Transcontinental railroad and the birth of present day Chinese American culture. Chef David SooHoo was born in San Francisco to Cantonese immigrants who owned Chinese-American restaurants in Sacramento. With more than 50 years behind the wok\, SooHoo was the first chef from Sacramento invited to the Beard House\, and most recent personal chef to Barron Hilton at his Venice Island Duck Club located in the reclaimed swampland of the San Joaquin Delta by the Chinese after the gold rush. \nThis program is co-sponsored by Oakland Asian Cultural Center and Eastwind Books of Berkeley. \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:Our Bojagi: Bojagi Artworks from Claire Lilienthal School
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]Our Bojagi: Bojagi Artworks from Claire Lilienthal School \nBojagi is a general term for all wrapping cloths in Korea. By sewing together small\, leftover cloths of various shapes and skillfully juxtaposing vibrant colors\, the unknown makers of traditional bojagi created exciting\, strikingly contemporary designs. Students in the Korean immersion program at Claire Lilienthal School create bojagi as one of their cultural activities working with local textile artist Youngmin Lee. Some students have been making bojagi for several years\, preserving and transferring their teacher’s knowledge of the traditional techniques and familiar forms as shown in this exhibition. \n  \nClaire Lilienthal K-8 Alternative School inspires each student to achieve their maximum potential in an academically\, culturally\, and socially inclusive environment. The school hosts Northern California’s only public school Korean language immersion program. Welcoming both native Korean speaking students as well as English speakers\, the Korean Immersion Program (KIP) seeks to achieve full bilingualism and biliteracy in Korean and English. KIP teachers\, all bilingual\, provide KIP students with the same academic content instruction as that provided General Education students\, but do so in both languages consistent with the proven dual-path language immersion model. KIP is a K-5 Korean/English Two-Way Immersion educational program designed to help students develop the ability to speak\, read and write in two languages at the same time. Along with proven academic and cognitive benefits\, developing bilingual skills enriches a child’s lived experience by exposing them to different cultures early in life. \n  \nCo-presented by the Oakland Asian Cultural Center and Claire Lilienthal School.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:"Hapa Tales and Other Lies" at Oakland Asian Cultural Center
DESCRIPTION:In her first work of literary nonfiction\, HAPA TALES AND OTHER LIES\, Sharon H. Chang explores her Asian American and Mixed Race identity through the prism of returning to Hawaii as a tourist. But what begins as a journey to discover herself turns into much more as she learns the true history of the islands\, Hawaii’s Indigenous children\, and the Native Hawaiian Sovereignty Movement. \nPlease join author Sharon H. Chang for a special Oakland Chinatown event celebrating her new memoir\, co-hosted by EastwindBooks Berkeley. The evening will include reading and discussion with Sharon and NoCal writers Asha Sudra\, Wei Ming Dariotis\, Nia McAllister and Fredrick D. Kakinami Cloyd. \nClick here for more Event Information
