Join us for a special conversation with writer and filmmaker Curtis Chin as he discusses his memoir, Everything I Learned, I Learned in a Chinese Restaurant, and explores the complexities of intersectional identities. In honor of Asian American & Pacific Islander Heritage Month, Curtis will share his personal journey growing up in a Chinese-American family and how his experiences navigating multiple cultural worlds shaped his understanding of identity, belonging, and community.

Through storytelling, humor, and poignant reflections, Curtis will delve into the intersections of race, culture, and personal experience, shedding light on the diverse identities within the Asian-American community and beyond. This event invites all to reflect on their own intersections of identity and engage in a meaningful dialogue about how our individual and shared histories shape who we are today.

Don't miss this opportunity to hear from one of the leading voices in AAPI storytelling and learn how embracing our differences enriches our collective experiences.
