Chinatown and Birthright Citizenship Historical Walking Tour
at Chinese Culture Center (CCC)
(Tours at 12noon, 1pm, 2pm, 3pm)
This guided walking tour and live panel discussion explores how Chinese immigrants--excluded, surveilled, and targeted by law--fought back in court and permanently reshaped the U.S. Constitution. Moving block by block through San Francisco Chinatown, we uncover overlooked legal battles that established equal protection, birthright citizenship, and limits on discriminatory policing. At each stop, participants hold archival photos against today's streets, bringing landmark cases like Yick Wo v. Hopkins and United States v. Wong Kim Ark vividly to life.
