Ep 8. Carol Goes West, The Immigration Story of the Xie Family

Carol Xie is the daughter of Jason Xie who owns Purple Dot Cafe in Seattle. Representing her family's business she gives us perspective on what it's like to be a kid growing up around Chinatown, working in the acquired family business, and the general battles to get with the times. Should reviews posted prior to the current ownership still be valid? We also all commiserate about how the hope of government support has been an emotional roller coaster which has ended positively for some but also has brought others to literal tears. There's a lot to unpack here!
