Tangled Roots: A Family History
Join us as we explore the Bing family history in Washington DC!
Overview
Richard Chan Bing is the author of Tangled Roots: Two Family Stories, One Mixed American Heritage, a book that explores Richard's own family history and what it means to be mixed-race in America. His mother's side traces back to Appalachian Virginia, and his father's has origins with some of the first Chinese immigrants from the 19th century.
With ties to Washington DC and DC's Chinatown, Richard's research and story gives us a glimpse into what life was like in the past. How has Chinatown changed? What type of lives did the Chinese Washingtonians lead? Join us as we explore more!
