Aimee Tang’s "Chinese Merchants of Albuquerque’s Route 66" is a featured historical presentation exploring the vital, often-overlooked contributions of Chinese-American business owners along Albuquerque's stretch of the Mother Road. The talk is part of the ongoing statewide Route 66 Centennial Speaker Series celebrating the 100th anniversary of the highway.

Tang’s presentation dives into the history of early Chinese merchants who established businesses along Central Avenue (Route 66). It covers how these entrepreneurs adapted to the changing demographics of the city and the booming auto-tourist industry, leaving a lasting cultural and economic footprint on Albuquerque.
