Fifty years ago, US grappled with discrimination that profoundly impacted minority communities. In Los Angeles, neighborhood leaders united to challenge these barriers by establishing a community-focused bank, aiming to deliver the American dream to those marginalized. This pivotal moment marked the beginning of a journey that has closely mirrored the experiences of the Asian American and Pacific Islanders community. To commemorate this shared journey, the East West Bank Foundation commissioned director Evan Leong (Linsanity, Snakehead, and Level Up with Stephen Curry) to create The Bridge. This feature-length documentary explores the struggles, perseverance, and successes that have empowered us all to reach further. 五十年前，美國正努力應對對少數族裔社區產生深遠影響的歧視問題。在洛杉磯，社區領導人聯合起來，透過建立一家以社區為中心的銀行來挑戰這些障礙，旨在為那些邊緣化群體實現美國夢。這一關鍵時刻標誌著一段旅程的開始，這段旅程密切反映了亞裔美國人和太平洋島民社區的經歷。為了紀念這段共同的旅程，華美銀行基金會委託導演艾文·梁（《林來瘋》、《蛇頭》和《與史蒂芬·庫裡升級》）創作《橋》。這部長篇紀錄片探討了讓我們所有人走得更遠的奮鬥、堅持和成功.

East West Bank documentary film highlighting how Chinese struggles and its current President is being accused as spies for China, how sick it could be. It mirrors the happening to Abacus Bank in New York, a Chinese owned bank founded sharing the same vision as East West Bank. It became the only bank got prosecuted during the 2008 financial crisis, the sole reason and the sin was the bank owned by Chinese. The owners spent 20 millions of their own money to defend the bank and their family name. After 5 years, the judge dismissed all charges. But the prosecutors in New York refused to apologize. The documentary film made it to Oscar but did not win an award.

華美銀行紀錄片突出了美國華人的掙扎以及現任華美銀行行長被指控為中國間諜的情況，這反映美國人仇中的病態。這也讓我記起了紐約 Abacus 銀行的情況，這是一家與華美銀行有著相同願景的中資銀行。它成為2008年金融危機期間唯一一家被美國起訴的銀行，被起訴唯一的原因和罪過就是中國人擁有的銀行。銀行中國老闆花了2000萬自己的錢來捍衛銀行和他們的家族名譽。5年後，法官駁回了所有指控。但紐約檢察官拒絕道歉。這部紀錄片曾入圍奧斯卡，但沒有得獎。

Abacus bank 的 documentary 可以免費觀看，是非常值得看。如果任何人要留在美國因為覺得這是一個民主自由和安全的國家，你可能喝得太多了! https://youtu.be/GKPa4OIVN4U?si=n8gLFbaVyCNRU0P7 👈
