This blog is devoted to your stories and recollections on the Asian American dance scene in Los Angeles at places like Rodger Young's and the Elks Club, listening to the bands Carry On, Free Flight, Winfield Summit and Hiroshima.
Collecting the stories is important because it was “our” time as Asian Americans. The decade of the 1970s was a period in the awakening of Asian pride following the Civil Rights movement, and minority groups were instilled with self-esteem in ethnic identity.
My friend's Datsun 510, one of many racing and cruising vehicles that turned my head on the streets, parking lots, freeways, and cruise nights in the 1970s.
