'To Dance Again' - The Asian American Foundation

On January 21, 2023, the Asian American community of Southern California was rocked by the deadliest mass shooting in the history of Los Angeles County. Eleven people were killed and nine others were injured as a gunman sought out elders at a Monterey Park ballroom dance studio on the eve of Lunar New Year.

 

TO DANCE AGAIN  is a short doc that pays tribute to the community’s resilience in the face of this unspeakable tragedy. In the aftermath, the Chinatown Service Center’s MPK Hope Resiliency Center had a clear purpose: Support the mostly AAPI Elders affected by this tragedy with programs and initiatives designed specifically to help heal and rebuild.
