We co-sponsored with Hunter College's AANAPISI Project a film screening of the Oscar-nominated documentary, Abacus: Small Enough to Jail. Owned by the Sung family, Abacus Federal Savings Bank was the only bank indicted for mortgage fraud in the 2008 financial crisis, and the film documents the Sung family's fight to clear their name. The screening was followed by Q & A with Chanterelle Sung, Jill Sung, Vera Sung, Chris Kwok of the Asian American Bar Association of New York and Don Lee of the Chinese Consolidated Benevolent Association of New York City.
