 Local historian Judy Yung passed away at the age of 74 on December 14, 2020. She was the librarian at the Chinatown/Him Mark Lai Branch of the Public Library in San Francisco and was at the forefront of developing an Asian American history collection.
Judy Yung retired as the Chair of The American Studies Department at UC Santa Cruz. She was also the author of Asian American history books giving emphasis to Chinese American women including Chinese Women of America: A Pictorial History and Unbound Feet: A Social History of Chinese Women in San Francisco. Another well documented and important book she co-authored with Him Mark Lai and Genny Lim was Island: Poetry and History of Chinese Immigrants on Angel Island,1910-1940. After her retirement in 2004, she continued her research and writings. Her most recent project was as co-curator of an exhibit on the Chinese in America at the California Museum in Sacramento. We lost an incredible mentor, a scholar, historian, and writer who gave us a deeper understanding and appreciation for Chinese American history. https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/Judy-Yung-Chinatown-native-and-early-scholar-of-15823362.php URGENT: Blue & Gold Fleet to Discontinue Service Between San Francisco and Angel Island State Park12/15/2020
URGENT: Help ensure that the public will have access to Angel Island  What: Blue & Gold Fleet has filed with the California Public Utilities Commission for Authorization to Discontinue Scheduled Passenger Transport Service Between San Francisco and Angel Island State Park (Application A.20-09-004) and between San Francisco and Tiburon (Application A.20-09-005). A decision might be made as soon as this week! What does this mean: Ending the ferry service would cut off thousands of students and visitors of all ages from visiting Angel Island and the US Immigration Station there, a designated National Heritage Site. During the years that the station was open from 1910-1940, the site was used to detain, interrogate, and process over 500,000 persons from 80 different countries. This history must be preserved. Approximately 50% of the visitors to the Immigration Station take the ferry from San Francisco. The public must have access! What can you do:
