SUMMARY:Play - Did You Eat? (밥 먹었니?)
DESCRIPTION:DID YOU EAT? (밥 먹었니?) is Zoë Kim’s autobiographical journey through love’s many forms–how it’s learned\, given\, and reflected inward. In a nimble and tender solo performance\, Zoë shapeshifts into the souls of her family through a landscape of memories where tears and laughter collide. It’s not just a story\, but a reckoning—weaving through the textured threads of Korean/American identity\, belonging\, and healing. DID YOU EAT? (밥 먹었니?) is a poetic love letter to the inner child\, and hopefully yours too. Directed by Chris Yejin.

SUMMARY:Protecting Southeast Asian Communities
DESCRIPTION:Across the country\, Southeast Asian refugee and immigrant communities face devastating deportation impacts. Decades after families resettled in the United States as refugees\, thousands remain vulnerable to removal because of old criminal convictions\, many tied to the challenges of poverty\, trauma\, and lack of support. \nThis year marks the 50th anniversary of the end of U.S. wars in Southeast Asia\, making current deportation policies particularly heartbreaking. ICE deports some Southeast Asian refugees without due process to third countries in Africa and Latin America\, places they have never lived and have no connection to. Those sent to Southeast Asia often don’t have support starting a new life in a country and culture that is foreign to them\, or they barely remember it. \nCommunity-based Southeast Asian organizations have been on the frontlines providing legal support\, organizing for policy change\, and helping families heal. Yet these organizations remain severely underfunded\, limiting their ability to meet urgent needs and build long-term power. \nThis briefing brings together community leaders\, advocates\, and funders to discuss the current landscape of Southeast Asian deportations and the human toll on families. Together\, we will explore how philanthropy can step up to resource Southeast Asian organizations\, strengthen community resilience\, and advance a more just and inclusive future.

SUMMARY:Toishan Diaspora in the Americas
DESCRIPTION:The Museum of Chinese in America (MOCA) invites you to a captivating conversation with artist and photographer Pok Chi Lau. For more than five decades\, Lau has traced the journeys of the Toishan/Taishan diaspora from the Pearl River Delta to Hong Kong and across the Americas. Grounded in his own family’s migrations dating back to the mid 19th century\, his camera has documented kitchens\, back rooms\, storefronts\, clubhouses\, home altars\, and streetscapes\, spaces where language\, labor\, faith\, and memory take root far from home.
