“...since California was not technically a slave state...”
But the descendants of early Chinese immigrants have a lot more cause for complaint than black residents of SF and Cal. The laws of the time explicitly targeted their ancestors. But of course the Chinese and Japanese somehow were able to overcome the adversity faced by their grandparents but current black residents apparently have not. It is not allowed to ask why that is.
Chinese, Japanese and other South Asians have gotten back at racism & racists by being better at the “job of life” then their oppressors. Chinese and Indians have done that almost all over the world.
With your screen name, I can understand why.
