In seeking to learn more about her family history, author Ava Chin was able to trace many of her relatives back to one building on Mott Street in Chinatown. From the Chinese Exclusion Act to present day, Chin traces the history of her family, and the Chinese community in America, through this one building. Chin joins us to discuss her new book, Mott Street: A Chinese American Family's Story of Exclusion and Homecoming.
