I have to finish this book tour of almost 30 cities.

California, where the anti-Chinese racism was greatest, became a very crucial swing state during presidential elections, and therefore both parties had to court California.

Often when times are good and when the US is on good diplomatic terms with China, the Chinese are viewed as a bridge between the two countries.

Often what is deeply offensive to Chinese-Americans that they are really well-represented in medicine, and yet on all these doctors' shows you hardly see any Chinese-American faces.

Congressman David Woo, when he wanted to give a speech at the Department of Energy-ironically to celebrate Asian History month-they stopped him. They wouldn't let him in. This was shortly after the Wen Ho Lee scandal.

Of course, in the United States, which at the time was a very young country, there were also class distinctions. They weren't as pronounced, but they quickly evolved as well.

It was clear that the special interest groups in California really wanted the Chinese to be shut out of the country, because that was where the racial tension was the greatest.

When the Chinese first came to San Francisco, they were actually welcomed by the mayor and they had special ceremonies for them-again this is when their colony was very small, only a few Chinese.

I have certainly amassed many historical research gathering skills.

As the Chinese grew in numbers, the immigrant population grew to the extent that it became a huge economic threat, there were efforts among white workers to organize among themselves politically, and what was unfortunate was that both major parties adopted anti-Chinese platforms.

It's a wonderful thing to see a segment of our population that is open and eager to learn more about Chinese culture. It has filtered into the mainstream. You see credit-card ads on TV with white couples and Chinese babies.

Racism is always there underneath, but usually it is exploited in these times of economic crisis, and it's hard to find out when one slides into another.

Often, what you see in the media is driven by economic forces.

The Japanese even forced fathers to rape their own daughters or sons their mothers, brothers their sisters in order to further degrade the victims.

Now, most of the new immigrants coming to this country are from Asia as opposed to Europe.
