The Chinese Exclusion Act Trailers

View All

A sweeping chronicle of the entire exclusion era - the latter part of the 1800s, when anti-Chinese agitation led to federal laws targeting Chinese abroad and those already in the country. Go far beyond the legislation with the survival and growth of Chinese American communities in the face of prejudice and outright violence, the “paper” sons and daughters who emigrated despite the seemingly impassable barriers, and the legal challenges that produced some of the most momentous decisions in Supreme Court history.

Reviews

Protraph Lack of good storyline.
Pluskylang Great Film overall
KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
Helllins It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.
