Black History Month & Chinese New Year Poetry Reading on Angel Island

Submitted by the Event Organizer

Poets Chun Yu and Michael Warr co-founded Two Languages/One Community to exchange culture and common experiences between African Americans and Chinese Americans using poetry and translation. The poets stand in solidarity with both communities in ensuring safety and peace against all forms of violence, hatred, and discrimination.

You are invited to experience their poems and stories in English and Chinese accompanied by projected images of text and photographs at the Angel Island Immigration Station in the Detention Barracks Museum.  Reading will be followed by small bites and discussion.
