Bridging the Divide
“There was a lot of fear in the community. How do we nurture trust? How do we build trust?” — Eddie Zheng, president of The New Breath Foundation and former inmate
Eddie Zheng spent 21 years behind bars in California for a crime he committed at age 16. Now he’s committed to building bridges — and bridging the divide between Asian Americans and other communities of color. But he’s not doing it alone. In one San Francisco neighborhood, Blacks and Asian Americans are working together to confront racism, fear, and misperceptions about one another.

“When journalists came to interview me, they were shocked to see a Chinese woman in America selling reggae music.” — Miss Pat, President and Co-founder of VP Records

Reflecting the diversity of the Asian American community, her story is rooted in Asian Caribbean history and at 85 years old, she is still making music.
