SUMMARY:HAYWARD–A Shoreline for All: How Citizens and Government Worked Together to Restore the Hayward Shoreline in the 1970s and 1980s
DESCRIPTION:HAYWARD-Join a series of community conversations about how Hayward histories shape our lives today.

This collaborative work is historically significant and unique to Hayward. \nCommunity Panel: Community Panel: A Shoreline for All: \nHow Citizens and Government Worked Together to Restore the Hayward Shoreline in the 1970s and 1980s\nFriday\, November 3\, 2023\, 3:00-4:30pm\nFremont Bank Room at the Hayward Public Library\n888 C Street\, Hayward\, CA 94541 \nLight refreshments will be served.

SUMMARY:SAN DIEGO–HOW TO HAVE AN AMERICAN BABY AT SDAFF
DESCRIPTION:Official Selection\, 2023 True/False Film Festival\nOfficial Selection\, 2023 San Francisco International Film Festival \nSAN DIEGO—Join a special screening and Q&A of HOW TO HAVE AN AMERICAN BABY at the 24th Annual San Diego Asian Film Festival!  \nAsian American Panorama| USA | Documentary | Mandarin\, English | Subtitled | 2023 | 117 mins \nWhere: Edwards Mira Mesa | 10733 Westview Pkwy\, San Diego\, CA 92126 \nWhen: Friday\, November 3\, 2023 | 7:35 pm \nTickets: $15. Purchase here. \nSynopsis\, written by Kim-Anh Schreiber: Dotted across the suburban sprawl of San Gabriel\, California are so-called “maternity hotels\,” all-inclusive birth tourism packages for expectant Chinese families. Offering plane tickets\, third-trimester accommodations\, hospital selection (across a spectrum of all-cash price points)\, and final mailing of a social security card back home\, hotel brokers enable birth to a child on American soil. Through a series of observational vignettes\, HOW TO HAVE AN AMERICAN BABY traces a network of actors across the supply chain of this shadow economy: motel managers\, nannies\, companions\, and expectant mothers themselves – two whose parallel stories heartbreakingly intersect at the film’s center. \nMoving through nondescript\, Southern California apartments\, hospital rooms\, and chain stores\, the actors depicted become strange bedfellows in the literal and metaphorical waystations of another country. Director Leslie Tai thrusts her viewer into the immediacy of being in-between nations\, life stages\, labor\, and birth. Unfolding conversations unveil the myriad negotiations each of these actors make as they navigate the byzantine\, bureaucratic systems of American healthcare\, law\, and citizenship\, often from the most vulnerable of positions. \nHOW TO HAVE AN AMERICAN BABY is a portrait of the Chinese repurposing of the American dream\, accessed through the unexpected intersection of birth and commerce. We witness two countries seen through the eyes of the other\, fixed upon a vanishing point of illusory opportunities. \nFilmmaker scheduled to attend.\nScreening to be followed by Q&A. \nThis project is supported by a California Documentary Project Grant.

SUMMARY:PBS Premiere–HOW TO HAVE AN AMERICAN BABY
DESCRIPTION:PBS Premiere–Tune into broadcast premiere of HOW TO HAVE AN AMERICAN BABY\, directed by Leslie Tai. The film will air as part of PBS’ Season 36 of POV. \nHOW TO HAVE AN AMERICAN BABY is a kaleidoscopic voyage into the booming shadow economy catering to pregnant Chinese tourists who travel to Southern California on “birthing vacations”—in order to obtain U.S. citizenship for their babies. Told through a series of intimately observed storylines and situations\, we meet expectant mothers\, maternity hotel operators and operator wannabes\, local doctors and civic officials\, birth tourism agents in China\, and the nannies\, cooks\, and chauffeurs that fuel this industry. Inside bedrooms\, delivery rooms\, and private family meetings\, the story of a hidden global economy emerges—depicting the fortunes and tragedies that befall the ordinary people caught in the web of its influence.  \nHOW TO HAVE AN AMERICAN BABY\, Directed by Leslie Tai\nPBS PREMIERE (120 minutes)\nMonday\, December 11\, 2023 (check your local listings for times)\n \nLearn more about the film on the PBS website. \nThis project is supported by a California Documentary Project Grant.

DESCRIPTION:Caption: Black seamen onboard ship [073]. Miriam Matthews Photograph Collection\, African American Museum and Library at Oakland. \nSACRAMENTO—Visit the Central Library in Sacramento from January 23 to March 16 for Take Me to the Water\, a multimedia exhibit curated by Dr. Caroline Collins that captures the historic panorama of the Black experience with the Pacific Ocean.  \nThe exhibit seeks to recenter the relationship between African Americans\, water\, and ships\, moving beyond the entrenched narrative of the Trans-Atlantic slave trade and towards the understanding that Black people have not only existed in the Pacific region for centuries\, but played an integral role in the development of Pacific economy and society. \nThe exhibit will be accompanied by the following series of free public programs: \nFebruary 8\, 6:30 pm on Zoom: Join us as Dr. Caroline Collins has a Q&A about her exhibit Take Me to the Water: Black Histories of the Pacific with SPL archivist and historian James Scott.

This zoom-based program encourages audience participation. \nZoom Link \nFebruary 15\, 7 pm on Zoom: Join Sacramento Public Library archivist James Scott and Marcquarie University (Sydney\, Australia) Professor of History Chris Dixon as they discuss his recent book\, “African Americans and the Pacific War\, 1941-1945: Race\, Nationality and the Fight for Freedom\,” (Cambridge University Press\, 2018). This zoom-based program encourages audience participation. \nZoom Link \nFebruary 24\, 1:00 pm at Central Library: Join us in the Sacramento Room at Central Library as Sacramento historian and Emmy-nomiated documentarian Chris Lango discusses a lesser known but vital chapter in the life of Sacramento attorney and civil rights champion Nathaniel S. Colley – his experience in the South Pacific during World War II and how it shaped the course of his life.  Lango will use rarely seen archival materials\, both in paper and audio-visual\, in an effort to bring clarity to this defining period in the life and career of Mr. Colley.   \nMarch 16: 1:00 pm at Central Library: Born to a Danish-Jewish father and Afro Caribbean mother in the Virgin Islands at the beginning of the nineteenth-century\, William Alexander Leidesdorff sailed both the Atlantic and Pacific\, forged fresh trade routes\, built influential relationships\, and eventually settled in California where he became one of the nation’s first African American millionaires. American River College professor of humanities Michael Harlan shares his research on this figure who – transitioning from mariner to landholder – became one of the most influential figures in the early development of California. \nTickets: Facilitated by the Sacramento Room\, the exhibit and all accompanying programs are free and no registration is required.

SUMMARY:LOS ANGELES–HOW TO HAVE AN AMERICAN BABY screening
DESCRIPTION:LOS ANGELES—Please join us for the LOS ANGELES PREMIERE of HOW TO HAVE AN AMERICAN BABY on February 8 at 6 pm at UCLA. Los Angeles County is the place where most of the film’s mystery unfolds\, home of the very special “ethnoburbs” of San Gabriel Valley. “A good documentary scratches your soul\,” said the late Marina Goldovskaya\, my legendary UCLA film professor.  \nAsian American Panorama| USA | Documentary | Mandarin\, English | Subtitled | 2023 | 117 mins \nWhere: James Bridges Theater\, 1409 Melnitz Hall\, UCLA\, Los Angeles \nWhen: Thursday\, February 8\, 2023 | 6-8:35 pm \nTickets: Free \nSynopsis\, written by Kim-Anh Schreiber: Dotted across the suburban sprawl of San Gabriel\, California are so-called “maternity hotels\,” all-inclusive birth tourism packages for expectant Chinese families. Offering plane tickets\, third-trimester accommodations\, hospital selection (across a spectrum of all-cash price points)\, and final mailing of a social security card back home\, hotel brokers enable birth to a child on American soil. Through a series of observational vignettes\, HOW TO HAVE AN AMERICAN BABY traces a network of actors across the supply chain of this shadow economy: motel managers\, nannies\, companions\, and expectant mothers themselves – two whose parallel stories heartbreakingly intersect at the film’s center. \nMoving through nondescript\, Southern California apartments\, hospital rooms\, and chain stores\, the actors depicted become strange bedfellows in the literal and metaphorical waystations of another country. Director Leslie Tai thrusts her viewer into the immediacy of being in-between nations\, life stages\, labor\, and birth. Unfolding conversations unveil the myriad negotiations each of these actors make as they navigate the byzantine\, bureaucratic systems of American healthcare\, law\, and citizenship\, often from the most vulnerable of positions. \nHOW TO HAVE AN AMERICAN BABY is a portrait of the Chinese repurposing of the American dream\, accessed through the unexpected intersection of birth and commerce. We witness two countries seen through the eyes of the other\, fixed upon a vanishing point of illusory opportunities. \nScreening to be followed by Q&A with Leslie Tai. \nThis project is supported by a California Documentary Project Grant.
