Boston Chinatown Walking Tour - THIS SUNDAY!!!

When: 10 or 10:30AM, Sunday, Dec. 4
Where: Boston Chinatown (Meeting place TBA)
How long: 90 mins
Cost: $6

Hi everyone!
There is an opportunity this Sunday to participate in a walking tour of Boston's Chinatown led by one of the community-based organizations, the Asian Community Development Corporation (ACDC). The tour takes you through the neighborhood, discussing the history of Boston Chinatown from its historical beginnings to the Big Dig to today's current issues of gentrification and zoning. This is a great chance to learn about one of the oldest (but lesser known) Asian American communities in the United States, who continues to struggle against its historical marginalization and disempowerment. If you are interested in participating, please email me, ceciliaychen@gmail.com by Friday.

Thanks,
Cece

P.S. Possibly dim sum afterwards...
