Description
This is the fascinating true story of the struggles and successes of Jimmy June Wong and his family from the time his grandfather emigrated from China to America around 1860 to the present day. The story is based on numerous rare historical documents and photographs that depict racism, intolerance, ancient Chinese customs such as foot binding, and efforts to adapt to the American way of life.
