Bruce Lee Statue
The Bruce Lee Statue Project is a community initiative aimed at celebrating the life and legacy of Bruce Lee through the placement of a statue in Los Angeles Chinatown. Bruce Lee's contributions to martial arts and action films were truly innovative. More importantly, however, Bruce Lee was an Asian American pioneer who changed our cultural landscape by breaking down racial barriers and creating a personal philosophy that continues to inspire millions of people the world over.
