Act II: Culturally Adrift

The identities we seek are not always the identities find. In Diego's travels to China, Thailand, and Spain in search of a sense of belonging, he finds community in unexpected places. These experiences influenced Diego's research as he considered how the first Asians in the Americas established community with strangers in a strange land under the name of Chino.
