Being a child of immigrant parents is a very New York story. During the 1940s, a significant population of New York City residents were children of immigrant. What was life like for the American children of Chinese immigrants to grow up in New York City? Sharing her findings from oral history interviews, Jean Lau Chin, author of Who are the Cantonese Chinese?: NYC Chinatown During the 1940s-60s, discusses how this “jook sing” generation navigated this space in between and their lives in New York.
