Introduction: The Minorities in American Life series is designed to illuminate hitherto-neglected areas of America’s cultural diversity. Each author treats problems, areas, groups, or issues that cannot ordinarily be examined in depth in the usual surveys of American history and related subjects. Although all the volumes are connected to each other through the unifying theme of minority cultures, the series is flexible and open to a number of uses.

By opening minority studies to young people, the series also meets a social and educational need. By providing the short, sound, and readable book on heir life and culture, and by accepting them on their own terms, the series accords minorities the justice and appreciation for their heritage that they have seldom received. By dealing with live issues in a historical context, it also makes the role of minority vulture in American life meaningful to young people and opens new doors to an understanding of the American past and present.

Introduction: In this present edition, Lo Bartolo Helps us to discover Havana’s Chinatown. Here and now in these pages, we have, free from enigma and mystery and contrary to what they have been teaching us for decades, the Chinese of today’s Cuba: old and young ,men and woman, born in China, in California, or in Cuba.

Day after day, month after month of what was going to turn out to be a long and difficult job, Lo Bartolo came into the Chinese Quarter armed with an almost Chinese patience and began to gain the confidence of the population…slowly, accurately and amicably. He began to seduce the people and get them interested in his project of graphically documenting the quarter and its inhabitants.

Introduction：In an extraordinary blend of narrative history, personal recollections, and oral testimony, Ronald Takaki presents a panoramic history of Asian Americans. He writes of the Chinese who laid tracks for the transcontinental railroads, of plantation laborers in the cane fields of Hawaii, of “picture brides” marrying strangers in hopes of becoming part of the American dream. The dark side of the dream is revealed, too, in stories of Japanese internment camps, Hmong refugees tragically unable to adjust to Wisconsin’s alien climate and culture, and Asian American students victimized today by a resurgence of racism.

Destined to become a classic in the tradition of Oscar Handlin’s Uprooted and Irving Howe’s World of Our Fathers,Takaki’s moving and powerful work will resonate for all Americans-who together make up a nation of immigrants from different shores.

In recovering a history made invisible by neglect and prejudices, Chinese gold sheds light on the whole of Chinese experience in America, revealing the proud saga of a resourceful,inventive,and ,and courageous people who pursued.
