I have a huge extended family. A female cousin & I are the only ones in the family who have bothered to research our family history which goes back to the 1880's, which is pretty far back for a #Chinese family in America.
AFAIK, my only niece is the only person in the next generation who is interested in the family history too but she's mainly interested in her side originating with her father whose roots go back to a Black/Cherokee connection in LA & a Chinese/Panamanian connection via my 1/2 sister.
I share that Chinese/Panamanian connection with my sister thru our father (who was 100% Chinese despite being born in Panama) but my mother's side was 100% Chinese thru my grandmother who was born in a mining camp in the Sierras called Dutch Flat in 1886 & my grandfather who immigrated to the SF in the 1890's & was granted citizenship by virtue of the fire in 1906.
I found this all fascinating & hope my niece will preserve this information for future generations.

Just watched a #Tubi "Original" movie called #WorthWaitingFor which is a rare all Asian cast production featuring 4 Asian couples (ALL Asian, which is also quite rare) who are interconnected by less than 7 degrees of separation & who are all facing issues related to falling/staying in love & together in face of life's problems.
It's a light-weight but entertaining movie that is worth your time if you have an interest in AAPI films & if you just like romcoms generally. My only complaint about the film is a undisguised mini-repeat of the #CrazyRichAsians romance between one of the couples but I found the relationship between the other 3 couples to be unique and original.
It's free to stream on Tubi. I enjoyed it & I'd give a 6.5 out of 10.

#AAPI . . .
Here's a link to an interesting (to me) story about a #Chinese woman (who was born in #China & adopted by a white family in New England as a child when she was only 1, who grew up as the only #Asian person in her community & who has become a #dominoes artist) that aired on #CBS' #SundayMorning program today:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ojJ8VNHn7hs#ddg-play
Here name is #LilyHevesh. Unbeknownst to me, she's been at this for a long time & a documentary about her (that I still need to watch) was made about her:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lily_Hevesh
I'm going to buy one of her dominoes kits for my 7 yr old granddaughter to "play" with. 😎

My family owns an #SRO (a single room occupancy "hotel") in #Chinatown & has owned it since the 1940's.
SROs are a uniquely San Francisco type of residence that have been in use long before the 1980's as the intro of this #PBS video "Home is a Hotel" states but whether you're familiar with SROs or not this video about life in SROs in SF is worth watching.

@mookie I watched #DevilWearsPrada (DWP) 2 the other day.
I liked it but I thought it was a retread of DWP1 in almost every respect, including Andy's attempt to "save" Amanda from a takeover when Amanda knew what was going on all along.
There is a segment of the #AAPI community that is "up in arms" about the stereotypical casting of the nerdy overachieving Asian American woman as Andy's assistant (a position clearly below her abilities) in the all white female controlled business but, while I can see their point, I'm not as bothered about it (I've seen much worse) as they are.
Here's a link to a YT video which expresses this POV:
https://youtu.be/xz_tEAyxMDo?si=0ikolG3r1ViU_BSv
On the other hand, I haven't heard any outrage from the #LGBTQ community about the stereotypical casting of the overweight gay/fem secretary which was equally concerning. At least they didn't cast, #BowenYang in either role which really would have offended me. 🤦♂️
In any event, I think DWP2 is entertaining & I'd rate it a 6 out of 10
