Podcasts

  • Beyond the Couch

    This week, Christie sits down with Anna Huang and Chloe Chan of @mottstreetgirls to talk about the community and vibrancy of New York City’s Chinatown. They chat about how they came to appreciate their identities more through learning more about their culture’s history and how they have come to view education as a way to heal the cycle of collective trauma. They discuss their views on the gentrification of Chinatown, being unexpected small business owners, and how they remain powered and grounded by their passion for the community.

  • Lucky Boys Podcast

    Will and Norm speak with the Mott Street Girls (MSG), founders Anna Huang and Chloe Chan. They are second-generation Chinese Americans who met through tour guide training at the Museum of Chinese in America. During the COVID-19 crisis, they saw how xenophobia and misinformation decimated tourism in Chinatown and threatened the survival of many residents and immigrant-owned small businesses.

  • The Voyages of Tim Vetter

    Chloe Chan and Anna Huang are the Mott Street Girls. The duo host walking tour's of New York City's Chinatown. The tours provide an education about the history of Chinese-American's experiences in New York City. Chloe and Anna also curate a list of Chinatown's best restaurants on their Instagram account. We spoke about their personal histories, The Chinese Exclusion Act, the gangs of Chinatown, and much more.

  • VIRAL LOVE: Stories of Chinatown Resilience

    Manhattan Chinatown is a complex cross-section of immigrant business owners, dim sum restaurant workers, grandpas playing cards in Columbus Park—and, most recently, a new wave of second-gen Asian Americans trying to preserve their childhood memories as they watch the pandemic erode Chinatown.
