They have “benevolent ass’ns” in Chinatowns up and down the West Coast. There are large, prominent pagoda-ish “benevolent association” buildings in Sacramento, in Portland, in Los Angeles, and probably elsewhere. Not sure what one does in a benevolent ass’n, but I suppose it’s better than a malevolent ass’n.
Just learned there’s one in my hometown: https://cabaoregon.wordpress.com/
It appears to be nothing but a Chinese-American club. Boy, does that ruin the fun in not knowing.
Now I’m looking for the malevolent ass’n. I presume I won’t find it in Chinatown; I’ll have to go all the way to 9th and Hennepin! (Super-obscure musical reference)
I bet my neighbor likes likes this place…..
