Chinese Whispers: Golden Gate - A Project By Rene Yung
Between 1849 and the early 1880s a quarter million Chinese came to California to work in the gold mines, railroads, lumber industry, fisheries, and as migrant farm laborers including some 15,000 Chinese who worked on the building of the Transcontinental Railroad. But today there is scant record about these pioneers -- they have mostly been forgotten as individuals. Hear evocative stories passed down for generations that reveal glimpses of the early Chinese immigrants and their families who lived in the San Francisco Bay region.
