Their GDP growth numbers are whack, especially when compared to the rest of the G7, a new report finds.
In 1994, as a high school freshman, my counselor forced me to attend summer school. He told me that without it, I…
Well, no need to go hunting down Wings to Victory (although you can find a lot of radio on archive.org or otrcat.com if you’re interested). My point was that the there’s plenty of evidence right out in the open for widespread discrimination against Chinese immigrants and citizens during the 40s. The 1930s trend of… Read more

When Bambi was released in August of 1942, the internment of Japanese Americans was already a political reality, and China had become a wartime ally on the eastern front, but Chinese Americans still faced discrimination. That year, the popular series of Fu Manchu serials was put on hold in deference to the Chinese… Read more

The Chinese Exclusion Act was indeed only meant for ten years but was renewed in 1892 and made permanent in 1902. Besides that your idead that discrimination against Asians was only in legal form is also flawed. Read more

Can you believe this idiot? Thinking he is either a troll or someone very misinformed about much of anything. He’s already been proved wrong by multiple people. I’m done engaging. Read more
Well she was very close to the American leadership and elites. Could speak English, had great American education, really understood diplomacy. Perhaps her, instead of her husband, leading the Republic, it could have survived in the Mainland. Read more
You literally already caved in when you changed your definition. Listen to @alohahomer. Your point is just so bizarre. Read more
What in the heck are you talking about? The Chinese Exclusion Act was in effect until 1943. Read more
People like to criticize Madame Chiang but she was instrumental in getting the Chinese Exclusions repealed in 1943. Read more
Attitudes towards all Asians have been hostile always. Ask Vincent Chin if it made any difference between 1871 to him. I don’t understand what point you’re trying to make. Asian immigration and miscegenation was severely limited all the way up until the 1960s. My grandfather was one of the few legal Chinese… Read more
