In an epic story that spans 150 years and continues to the present day, Iris Chang tells of a people’s search for a better life—the determination of the Chinese to forge an identity and a destiny in a strange land and, often against great obstacles, to find success. She chronicles the many accomplishments in America of Chinese immigrants and their descendents: building the infrastructure of their adopted country, fighting racist and exclusionary laws, walking the racial tightrope between black and white, contributing to major scientific and technological advances, expanding the literary canon, and influencing the way we think about racial and ethnic groups. Interweaving political, social, economic, and cultural history, as well as the stories of individuals, Chang offers a bracing view not only of what it means to be Chinese American, but also of what it is to be American.
1840移民潮开始,本以为海外生活会越来越美好,没想到华人在美遭受各种不公平对待。1882年排华甚至被写进法规,戊戌年李鸿章访美甚至绕到加拿大而不敢经过西部加州,无力申辩。直到1943年才废止,且限制移民配额。国家强大,国人才不会遭受欺凌!谢谢作者搜集整理这些资料,让...

评分客观,入木三分的华人移民史。值得一读
评分一部简明扼要叙述美国华人的艰难移民史,从加州淘金运动的排华法案,到越南战争前后在美科学家的被排挤,再到80年代弥漫于整个社会对于华裔的歧视。美国社会对于外民族的歧视自始至终魅影随行,作者在书中不断地在阐明这个道理,甚至但凡在海外生活过的人都能感受到高加索人的虚伪,但又为什么有无数人前仆后继的往国外移民,在书中作者用福建人做例子揭示了问题的答案,想要赚更多的钱,更稳定的生活,更自由的环境,如是而已。
