    These stories are way too good to be having such shitty audio quality. Put some mics on the story tellers. Its 2022 we shouldn't be having to strain our ears just to hear what's going on!!

    You gotta invest in a body mic, the audio isn’t there. I gotta put my volume level 70 and I still barely hear half the interview.

    Mad respect to Kenny for standing up for the new Chinese immigrants even though he was accepted by the neighborhood Italians.

    They arrived in 1971. In 1977 they had enough money to buy a house. That money did not come from working in a sweatshop. Garment factories do not pay that well.

      My brother lost his blue collar white friends at 13 when Dad was murdered by Ghost Shadows, On Leong & Kuomintang who started smearing Dad in the press expertly & thoroughly.
      Then my brother was coincidentally befriended by chinese kids dressed in black including clever taiwanese siblings who immediately taught him to smoke, drink & stay out until 4am. We were exhausted. I stepped on my laptop rushing to answer my brothers doorbell ringing. We believe Patrick led my brother to sit at a table with spiked hair while Patrick asked for protection money from the wing wong on Lafayette st.
      After what my dad went through that we as a family witnessed including my brother who voted No we do not want Dad to join On Leong when Kmt put their plan in motion, my hydrocephalic brother post murder so dumb ruined his reputation & health & education because Kuomintang needed to ruin our rep & they couldn't get near us until 1998 with the arson on dads birthday that Don Lee's sister told everyone my mom did the day after her surgery.
      1971? That means the factory owning Aunt knew my dad.
      No good deed goes unpunished. I regret every immigration sponsorship & every favor dad did including to his own family members who never helped us in return, all flourished & Gloated.
      John lam deliberately followed my father around to get his garment district connections & shadowed his every move including renting from kmt kam man on Canal Street.
      But dad could never get the elevators in time for the truckers. The elevator was always stuck on HK high school educated John lam's floor & sixth grade country school dad did not believe in thinking ill nor suspecting others.
      It would be unchivalrous.
      Instead he threw a rope down to the truckers who threatened to leave as they had already done. He told them to tie it to the top corner of the truck & he slid the clothes on hangers on the zipline.
      Et voila, he solved the John lam blockade.
      So since the 1970s, John lam was a frenemy & it is immoral that my father refused to allow his brain to see darkness in others.
      Now after the long torture of the perjury lawsuit that commenced on 2013 & beyond the 2019 foreclosure brought by John lam's wiring company's brother & sister in law.
      Does Robin Chee work for Main PC computer warehouse?
      He and his brother still extorted Dad months before they killed him demanding that Dad donate expensive mooncakes & purchase overpriced citrus trees. Sadistic.
      And this is WHILE Dad was forced to serve as National President of On Leong. He told mom its just for one year & then he would never have anything to do with these people.
      They killed him & smeared him before the year was over.
