Will and Norm welcome community activist and local Chinatown shop manager, Patrick Mock, who went viral for confronting de Blasio when the pandemic hit New York City. We dive into his upbringing and being a product of NYC Chinatown, which gave him the tenacity to start organizing efforts to help save struggling Chinatown businesses while also caring for the neighborhood’s most vulnerable residents during the pandemic. Mock was also nominated by Instagrammer New York Nico and led to a $50,000 grant from Google, presented by actor Will Smith on his Snapchat series “Will from Home.”

Smith also presented Mock with $10,000 from the Asian Americans for Equality organization to buy lanterns for the Light Up Chinatown initiative, Mock’s idea to have donors buy a personalized lantern to be strung and lit over Mott Street.

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. 

This led them to co-found MSG to make Chinese American history and culture more accessible to the public. By hosting Chinatown walking tours, creating educational social media content, and partnering with community organizations, they strive to preserve Chinatown’s rich cultural heritage, bring business to the neighborhood, and share the stories of their community.
