Magic Fingers

Humanity in Action is proud to present Magic Fingers, a documentary film by Senior Fellow Chunyang Wang. Created in response to the #NoArenaChinatown movement in Philadelphia’s Chinatown, the film captures the community’s efforts to protect their neighborhood from a proposed NBA arena development.

The story centers on Sister Jing, a local salon owner who channels her activism through art-making and caregiving in her 11-year-old hair salon.

After screening at various film festivals and AAPI organizations, Chunyang and her team are now delighted to share the documentary with you. Watch Magic Fingers directly above.
