Amelia Eng is a seventeen-year-old senior at Brooklyn Technical High School, and a proud fifth-generation NYC resident! This is her first year as a Youth Researcher for the Localized History Project, and she has been deeply invested in exploring the ways artistic disobedience can be used in community building and documenting the past. As an aspiring artist and a Chinese American, Amelia wants to move towards unearthing her own roots, and learning more about how her story blends into the diverse tapestry of the AANHPI diaspora.
