Movies

Pioneering Asian American Stars from the Golden Age of Hollywood

When: Wed., Sept. 25, 5:30-8 p.m.

Screening of two films, Phantom of Chinatown (1940) and Daughter of Shanghai (1937) followed by a discussion. The two films are rare examples of “Golden Age” Asian-themed movies that starred Asian American actors rather than Euro-American actors in “yellowface.” Doors open at 5:00 p.m. This free event is a part of the Chinese Pioneers: Power and Politics in Exclusion Era Photographs, a new exhibition at the Clarke Historical Museum. This exhibition, made possible with substantial support from a California Humanities grant awarded to Humboldt Asians & Pacific Islanders in Solidarity (HAPI) as part of “Recovering Eureka’s Chinatown Past."
