SUMMARY:Herstory: the Legal History of Chinese American Women
DESCRIPTION:On display in Hillman Library now until April 30\, 
 2026!\n\nhosted by the University of Pittsburgh Asian Studies Center\, 
 Center for Ethnic Research and University Library System\n\n\nExhibit 
 Events:\n\nComing Soon!\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nHerstory 1 and Herstory 2\, part 
 of the traveling exhibition Herstory: The Legal History of Chinese American 
 Women\, curated by Dr. Chiu Chang (also known as Dr. Chang C. Chen\, 
 邱彰)\, documents the courageous legal battles fought by Chinese American 
 women—cases that challenged discriminatory immigration laws\, fought for 
 equal rights\, and helped reshape U.S. legal history as early as 1852.\n\n 
 \n\nDrawing from U.S. Supreme Court rulings\, state court decisions\, and 
 landmark lawsuits\, Herstory reveals how Chinese American women paved the 
 way for future generations to gain basic legal standing in the United 
 States. Their stories\, once overlooked\, are now recognized as essential 
 chapters in the broader fight for justice and equality in America.\n\n 
 \n\nCurator Dr. Chiu Chang is a former senator in Taiwan\, an accomplished 
 attorney\, and the author of more than 70 books. What began as a personal 
 endeavor to fill a void in the historical record has since gained 
 international acclaim\, with exhibitions held in cities around the 
 world.\n\n \n\nHerstory is more than a legal history. It is a testament to 
 resilience\, advocacy\, and the ongoing pursuit of justice.\n\n\n\n

 15260. Metered on-street parking is available on various streets
