Following the financial crisis of 2008, only a single bank in America was indicted for alleged wrongdoing: Abacus Federal Savings, a small community bank serving Manhattan’s Chinatown. The Academy Award-nominated documentary Abacus: Small Enough to Jail, directed by Steve James, chronicles Abacus’ prosecution—a conspicuous one, given the lack of indictments for much-larger banks who had admitted to worse crimes. The film examines the effect of the trial on founder Thomas Sung; his daughter, President and CEO Jill Sung; and the rest of their family, as well as on New York’s Chinese community as a whole.Rice University’s Chao Center for Asian Studies presents a free screening of Abacus along with a reception and Q&A with the Sung family, on Monday, September 17, as part of the Frank and Cindy Liu Distinguished Visitor Series. Eddie Allen, CFA; Senior Partner of Eagle Global Advisors, LLC, and Chairman of the Board of Asia Society Texas Center; will moderate the Q&A. Join us at the BioScience Research Collaborative (BRC) Auditorium, conveniently located just outside of Rice campus, at 5 PM, for this very special event. Paid parking is available underneath the BRC, accessible from Dryden Road.Click below to RSVP:https://www.eventbrite.com/e/abacus-small-enough-to-jail-free-screening-reception-tickets-49069579433
