1:00 PM - 2:00 PM
Location
Oakland Asian Cultural Center, 388 9th St, Suite 290, Oakland, CA 94607

Join the Oakland Asian Cultural Center (OACC) on March 24, 2024 at 1 PM for a book launch.

William “Bill” Gee Wong will read from his newly published book Sons of Chinatown: A Memoir Rooted in China and America, followed by a conversation with Harvey Dong, of Eastwind Books, and a book signing.

William Gee Wong’s father entered the U.S. legally as the “son of a native,” despite having partially false papers. Sons of Chinatown is Wong’s evocative dual memoir of his and his father’s parallel experiences in America during the Chinese exclusion era and in the subsequent decades.

Eastwind Books will be selling copies of the book at this event.
