Ever since three Chinese seamen landed at Baltimore, MD. in 1785, Chinese 
Americans in the United States have had to struggle against prejudice and 
discrimination (e.g. Chinese Exclusion Lawst, 1882-1888) just to survive
in the American mainstream.  Although Chinese Exclusion Laws were repealed in 1943, prejudice and discrimination still arise when it is politically expedient.  For the past 200 years, relying on hard work and self-discipline, Chinese Americans have made great contributions to the development and prosperity of the United States. This series of articles is dedicated to describing many of the accomplishments made by Chinese Americans.

This series of articles are edited by Ms. Wubing Zong.  Wubing Zong was an editor at Xuelint Publishing House in Shanghai, China.  She has her B.A. in History from Shanghai Teacher's University and her M.A. in Western Historiography from Eastern China Normal

American Forum, and other things.
