Family Amnesia honors the current and past stories of immigrant workers in the U.S. and examines the impact that the 1882 Chinese Exclusion Act continues to have on the Chinese immigrant experience. This is a painful part of our American history. Betty Yu reclaims that narrative through her own personal family’s story.

Betty Yu is a socially engaged multimedia artist, photographer, filmmaker, educator, and activist born and raised in NYC to Chinese immigrant parents. Ms. Yu integrates documentary film, new media platforms, and community-infused approaches into her artistic practice, Ms. Yu's documentary "Resilience" about her garment worker mother fighting sweatshop conditions screened at national and international film festivals including the Margaret Mead Film and Video Festival.
