Over three memorable days, Oct. 28-30, in New Orleans, I had the privilege of speaking at the 2024 PastForward National Historic Preservation Conference, thanks to the gracious invitation of the National Trust for Historic Preservation and Georgetown University. I shared insights from my book on the history of Houston’s Chinatowns and joined a dynamic panel on preserving America’s Chinatowns alongside Di Gao (D.C.), Jennifer Li (NYC), Marian Liou (Atlanta), and Winston Ho (New Orleans). A special highlight was hearing Wendell Pierce’s inspiring address "Presentation, Politics and Promise " It was an honor to share the stage with him during different sessions on Day 2.
