SUMMARY:Play - Chinese Republicans
DESCRIPTION:Coming to Roundabout this winter\, Chinese Republicans is a biting new satirical drama from Alex Lin\, directed by Chay Yew.  \nThree high-powered businesswomen meet for lunch every month to discuss their latest career triumphs\, as they’ve done for decades. But the group is jolted when Katie\, a bright-eyed 24-year-old new to the workforce\, joins to navigate the world of corporate finance. As each of the women attempts to steer Katie towards what they’re certain is best\, they’re forced to grapple with how much they already have and are willing to sacrifice to climb the corporate ladder.   \nShifting between sharp-tongued humor and the harsh realities of modern capitalism\, this world premiere production explores themes of assimilation\, intergenerational conflict\, and gender politics in the workplace—all with unflinching wit and empathy. Chinese Republicans is a new play from a thrilling new American voice\, and tells a truly American story.

SUMMARY:Exhibition - LEGENDS: Athleticism in Asian/American Art
DESCRIPTION:LEGENDS: Athleticism in Asian/American Art explores the intersection of art and sports through the work of contemporary Asian and Asian American artists. While often considered distinct fields\, this exhibition highlights how sport and artistic expression serve as interconnected arenas. Featuring artists and collectives across a wide range of artistic media\, LEGENDS examines how artists of Asian descent engage with the shared language of art and sport to reflect identity\, nationalism\, the body\, and performance.  \nThe first exhibition to specifically focus on the relationship between art and sports within contemporary Asian and Asian American art\, LEGENDS will debut works by The Chinatown Basketball Club\, Kaarina Chu Mackenzie\, and Astria Suparak.

SUMMARY:Virtual Two-Day Facilitating Racial Equity: 2/17 & 2/18
DESCRIPTION:Please note that this is a training happening over the span of 2 days. \nPlease note that there is a prerequisite course prior to taking this training. Participants are REQUIRED to take the Building Racial Equity: Foundation course. \nRace Forward believes that racial justice is more important now than any other we have faced. We must embed racial equity into all of our daily operations and hold fast to a commitment that enables us to learn\, grow\, and practice racial equity work together. \nAs the world adapts to the pandemic\, we will continue to offer virtual learning spaces that center on normalizing\, organizing\, and operationalizing racial equity in our work at every intersection. \nOne of the biggest challenges of racial equity work in organizations is building a culture where people feel supported to learn\, grow\, and practice together. Facilitating for Racial Equity is a workshop that gives participants the tools and practice to face this challenge. This workshop builds on the foundation of the Building Racial Equity workshop\, equipping participants with the skills\, frameworks\, and practice that they need to facilitate their own racial equity workshops. Participants will engage with a behind-the-scenes view of how racial equity workshops are structured\, built\, and delivered. Participants will leave this training: \n\nMore familiar with the practices of equity-focused facilitation\nWith more comfort & fluency with naming social dynamics and guiding group learning.\nAble to understand and recreate similar structures\, frameworks\, and exercises as the Building Racial Equity workshop.\n\nWho we most want to reach and engage: \nThis training is geared towards people in organizations that are already mostly aligned in their commitment to racial equity and have already dedicated resources and collective labor. The organization should have staff education as a significant priority of their internal-facing organizational change strategy and have sent staff to participate in a Building Racial Equity Workshop. \nWe also welcome individual facilitators who facilitate conversations around race and racial justice.

SUMMARY:Teaching AAPI Cross-Cultural Solidarity to Grades 6-12
DESCRIPTION:Asian American and   Pacific Islander (AAPI) communities have played active roles in U.S. history\,   yet their narratives and contributions are often overlooked. When included in   curricula\, AAPI stories are frequently taught in   isolation\, with little attention paid to moments of cross-cultural solidarity and   collective struggle with other communities. This workshop seeks to bridge   that gap by equipping educators   with historical context\, shared narratives and tools to teach AAPI   history through a lens of connection and solidarity.

SUMMARY:MOCA CINEMA – Blurring the Color Line
DESCRIPTION:Where did Chinese Americans sit on the bus during Jim Crow? Blurring the Color Line challenges the rigid Black-and-white narratives of segregation by centering the often-overlooked experiences of Asian Americans in the American South. While much has been written about the systemic oppression of Black communities under Jim Crow\, far less attention has been given to the social positioning of Asian Americans during this period. \nThe Museum of Chinese in America is honored to host a screening of the documentary Blurring the Color Line\, continuing vital conversations about the historical and contemporary relationships between Asian American and Black communities. At a moment when “Sinners” is competing for the Academy Awards and drawing renewed attention to Chinese American life in the South\, this documentary offers timely historical context and deeper insight into the lived experiences of Chinese communities under Jim Crow. By tracing a shared yet complicated past\, the film invites critical reflection on today’s racial tensions and the legacies that connect them. \nInspired by filmmaker Crystal Kwok’s grandmother’s memories of her family’s grocery store in Augusta\, Georgia\, the film draws from lived experiences within a Black neighborhood to reveal the contradictions and inequities of a deeply racialized system. \nA post-screening talkback with filmmaker Crystal Kwok and additional panelists will follow.
