127. Next Stop: Chinatown
from 2 Queens In A Pod Hosted by Melanie Geidel
In this episode, we dive into the rich history of New York City’s Chinatown, one of the oldest and largest Chinese communities in the United States. We explore how Chinatown began in the mid-1800s as Chinese immigrants settled in Lower Manhattan, building a neighborhood during a time of intense discrimination and exclusion. Listen along as we share how we unexpectedly found ourselves in Chinatown during Lunar New Year. With firecrackers popping and silly string flying everywhere, the streets had turned into one big block party and we had an absolute blast exploring the celebration.
