Becoming American: The Chinese Experience

[atrac88]

This is an outstanding documentary series and I am shocked that it is so difficult to find clips from. I especially liked the end credits music.

When Seung-Hui Cho shot up Virginia Tech. there were postings all over the internet that rang along these lines/sentiments: "WE NEED TO DEPORT ALL GOOKS NOW!". Truth.

@lukebccb

The biggest mistake was that Cho didn't shot you in the head.

This is a fantastic documentary. I wish it was available on DVD. I loved the end credits montage/music.

Well, would China ever let in millions of European immigrants???

Of course not!

For substantial stretches of U.S. history, it was believed that only the people of English originwere real Americans. It was only in 1965 that the reform of U.S. immigration law abolished the system of national-origin quotas.

Anglo-Americans wanted to keep the country English, just like China wants to remain Chinese.

@EnglishEthnicPride2

what about the British being in Hong Kong...tell me something about that.

@EnglishEthnicPride2 Ha, america was overtaken by germans as early as 1820, by the irish as soon as the 1840s.

I seriously doubt if Anglo-Americans were ever truly the majority in America at any given point.
