Film Screening and Director Q&A: Carved in Silence

Join us on Thursday, January 30 at 6pm for an eye-opening look at Marin's past with director Felicia Lowe as she shares her 1988 documentary Carved in Silence at the San Anselmo Library. The film reveals the previously untold story of the Exclusion Era - its genesis, its reality, and its consequences. Focusing on the detention of Chinese immigrants at Angel Island Immigration Station in San Francisco Bay, the documentary combines interviews with historical footage and dramatic re-enactments to translate the impact of public policies into human terms.
