Will and Norm welcome community activist and local Chinatown shop manager, Patrick Mock, who went viral for confronting de Blasio when the pandemic hit New York City. We dive into his upbringing and being a product of NYC Chinatown, which gave him the tenacity to start organizing efforts to help save struggling Chinatown businesses while also caring for the neighborhood’s most vulnerable residents during the pandemic. Mock was also nominated by Instagrammer New York Nico and led to a $50,000 grant from Google, presented by actor Will Smith on his Snapchat series “Will from Home.” Smith also presented Mock with $10,000 from the Asian Americans for Equality organization to buy lanterns for the Light Up Chinatown initiative, Mock’s idea to have donors buy a personalized lantern to be strung and lit over Mott Street.
