Series consists of records relating to Asian American ethnic communities, in particular the American Chinese communities in San Francisco, California, and the state of Washington. Newsletters, photographs, magazines, flyers, correspondence, brochures and pamphlets, and audio material in this series focus on Asian performing, visual, and literary arts and cultural events. In addition, there is material relating to protests for tenants of the International Hotel in San Francisco (a low-cost hotel where many Asian immigrants lived) and Chol Soo Lee, a Korean American who was wrongly convicted for murder in 1973.
