Playwrights’ Center: Play Reading About Racism and Asian-American Identity

submitted by devega@augsburg.edu

Join Augsburg’s CGEE partner organization, the Playwrights’ Center, for a free reading of Ray Yamanouchi’s play “Tha Chink-Mart”.

A small, suburban town in Long Island, New York. Five Asian American teenage friends battle through a high school telling them they’re too Asian and a home life telling them they’re too American. Finding solace only amongst each other, they attempt to define for themselves what it means to be Asian in America… for better or for worse.
