A Legacy Magnified: A Generation of Chinese Americans in Southern California, 1980’s-2010’s (南加華人三十年史話英文版) is a monumental publication jointly authored by a team of renowned group of writers consisting of 17 chapters, nearly 1 million words, and more than 1,300 photographs, many of which are collected from historical archives. It is an unprecedented endeavor undertaken by more than 500 volunteers who were privileged to have witnessed the drastic and amazing transformation of Chinese American communities in Southern California during the critical three decades, from the 1980’s to the 2010’s.

This handsome volume encompasses an historical account of multifarious realms of community development, including various aspects of culture, history, political participation, economic growth, businesses, education, language, sports, mass media, science and technology, scholarly research, literature, music, dance, theatre and other performing arts, among other subjects.

This book is substantial, and is dedicated to “All Chinese of past, present, and future generations who contribute to the world culture by incorporating the quintessence of Chinese civilization and their heritage.”

Postscript
A Crystal Formed Out of 900,000 Beads of Sweat

Following 1,460 days of toil and labor, an estimated 1,460 person-visits to the small meeting room of the American-East Asian Cultural and Educational Foundation, and consuming over 1,460 boxes of bento, A Legacy Magnified: A Generation of Chinese Americans in Southern California, 1980’s-2010’s, containing over 900,000 Chinese characters, is finally available in print.

In the past 30 years, the Chinese in Southern California excelled in their respective fields of expertise and in all realms of activities, including culture, politics, economy, education, sports, mass media, business, science and technology, academics, arts, literature, music, dance, drama, food, and service industry. They have thrived and continue to flourish. To write a book like A Legacy Magnified covering all these aspects with limited human and financial resources and working under time constraints would have been quite impossible.

Fortunately, when I proposed to write a book like this, I received warm responses from the Chinese community. More than a hundred individuals signed up as volunteers, and donations streamed in. I was greatly encouraged. While I was excited about the prospect, I felt that the onus of my responsibility was heavy. In order to live up to the expectations of my supporters, I treaded with fear and trepidation as if I was walking on thin ice. I sketched the book’s plan and structure and proactively commenced the work.

Initially I thought we could publish the book after collecting enough articles and material within four months. Unexpectedly, however, we continue to receive more and more material from all sources. It has taken us four years, instead, to produce this volume after we have incorporated all available information and data. As a result of the enthusiastic response from the Chinese American communities, the original plan to divide the book into fourteen chapters in approximately 60,000 Chinese characters, was once expanded to about 2,000,000 characters. We have managed, finally, to reduced the book to approximately 900,000 characters in seventeen chapters in its current form and shape. Dr. San-pao Li, Professor Emeritus, a historian by profession, thoughtfully offered the capstone of this book with its encompassing title Guang Da Chuan Cheng 光大傳承(Legacy Magnified), highlighting the historical significance of this publication.

During this period of over four years of research, exploration, and visitations, we solicited and received more than 300 articles. We collected oral history of over 500 individuals. In addition, we also collected over 200 books and publications related to our subject, over 1,000 newspaper clippings, over 1,000 questionnaires from Chinese American families, over 1,000 precious photos, and more than 2,000 pieces of contact information of outstanding personalities in the Chinese American community. In the meanwhile, we developed and launched a new web site that will enable us to continue to update our content in the future. In the process of compiling this work, we received support from University of California, Los Angeles besides the Chinese community. UCLA East Asian Library launched a special project and employed additional staff to further document the oral histories of some eminent Chinese Americans in order to archive them as raw research material for in-depth scholarly studies in the future.

As I was sorting out the nearly 2,000 telephone numbers collected, I recall how tirelessly we went out of the way to search for relevant information. I recall how our editorial team collected, reviewed and edited the manuscripts contributed by over 100 outstanding Chinese American, and how assiduously they reconciled the innumerable factual contradictions, verified, sorted out, complied, reviewed and fixed the errors. I recall how our volunteers rendered their service so willingly and selflessly. Touched by the dedication of all these individuals, I became frequently oblivious of time, skipping meals and sleep. I recall the many warm and thoughtful encouragements offered as well as skepticisms of all kinds. I recall getting up in the countless early mornings, still exhausted and fatigued, yet with strong conviction and faith, I struggled to continue the tasks before me. I recall the four years during which I neglected inadvertently my family and many of the administrative responsibilities of the school of which I am the principal. I recall the unparalleled commitment displayed by my fellow workers in the modest editorial staff office located at the back of the Sunshine Education Center. This project of immense scope is now finally completed. The 900,000 Chinese characters contained in this book represent, indeed, the crystallization of 900,000 beads of sweat. While my heart dances with joy, I find myself in fear and trepidation. Although I feel that I have exhausted my utmost, the limited space available in this book cannot possibly comprehensively document every marvelous detail of the splendid history of the Chinese immigrants in Southern California during the past half century. Errors are understandably unavoidable, but what makes me feel uneasy most is the possibility of inadvertent omissions of much of the accomplishments of many outstanding individuals. The only comfort is that we have developed and launched a website through which we can always supplement and update information received in the future. I hope earnestly that our readers here and abroad will continue to offer constructive comments and suggestions.

Finally, before this book goes to print, I wish to extend my profound gratitude to all individuals and Chinese American organizations and their leading officers for their guidance, suggestions as well as their financial contributions during the entire process of its preparation and production. The Chinese language media spared no space to report to their readers or viewers details of every stage of this project. I remain deeply touched. The American-East Asian Cultural and Educational Foundation and the North America Chinese Writers’ Association in Los Angeles北美洛杉磯華人作家協會, of both which I am a member, contributed significantly during the initial phase of this project. The unstinting support that I have received from the board members of the Southern California Foundation for the Preservation of Chinese Literature and History Inc.南加華人文史保存基金會, all of whom are eminent individuals, the sustained encouragement of all the teachers, students, and their parents alike at Sunshine Education Center, and the generous support from my family and friends will forever be remembered. Last but not the least, I would like to acknowledge with profound gratitude and appreciation the dedication, commitment, and diligent effort of each and every participant in this project and its staff. My sincerest gratitude to you all!
