Storytelling Narrative

Fred Ho was no stranger to racism growing up as a Chinese American. The revolutionary movements against colonialism that occurred around the world during 1960’s and 1970’s, deeply influenced the development of his political ideologies. Ho gravitated towards Amiri Baraka and the Black Arts Movement, which in turn drew him into the politics of international socialism. These events helped shape him and gave him a voice to speak out against inequality through his creativity and art.
