Chapter 0885 - Amplifying Moves
"The Chinese Exclusion Act did not come from one person, but from the entire American administration and the power of the people......
"I think it's clear to all of you that in this so-called free country, discrimination has risen to the ...... surface."
"If we want to change the status quo, the first thing we have to do is to integrate into it, make ourselves important, become an integral part of society, we ......"
"Only in this way can we completely change the status of the Chinese, make everyone straighten their waists, and make the white ghost guys dare not despise us anymore......"
The delegates stood up collectively and clapped their hands into thunderous applause.
In particular, the representatives from the workers and peasants applauded with the greatest force, raising their arms parallel to their shoulders, and their palms colliding as if they were about to smash something.
The roads around Chinatown have been blocked, and there are special mounted police officers responsible for maintaining order.
This is for fear that certain extremists will take advantage of the opportunity to cause harm.
After all, this kind of thing has not happened before, and the Chinese who refuse to accept them here are among the richest and most powerful people in the United States.
If something really goes wrong, it will have a big impact on the relations between China and the United States.
The Far East also sent representatives, and the money of overseas Chinese was not donated in vain.
At this time, it is the time when the country needs them, and the country also needs them, and only by working together can we go further and better.
Although this is a meeting of non-governmental organizations, the level of attention it has received is far greater than anyone imagined.
First of all, the Secretary of State on behalf of the President personally attended the meeting and listened to the demands and wishes of the Chinese people.
Secondly, most of the influential public figures from all walks of life also attended the meeting.
The entire meeting was broadcast and reported by the newspapers and broadcasters of the Los Angeles News Corporation.
The meeting was tight and didn't have much time to waste, so get to the point from the beginning.
The Chinese Exclusion Act is a topic that no one can get around.
The Chinese delegates took the stage to talk about the difficulties and discrimination they had encountered in their work and life.
He also expressed his hope for the United States to be treated equally in a country that claims to be 'free'.
At the same time, a large amount of obscured data was revealed.
The contribution of the Chinese in the large-scale construction of the western region is how many Chinese bones are buried under the railway line, doing the most dangerous and dirty work, and receiving the least wages.
They are not allowed to enter high-end places, and they will be questioned by the police every two steps when they walk out of Chinatown, and they will even be taken back to the police station for abuse for no reason.
and so on, and so on, to realize that the American public did not think that the fairness they had previously thought existed at all.
The next day, a document was revealed again.
When the Titanic sank, several Chinese employees were blamed by European and American countries, and people wanted to blame them for the mistake.
But judging from the data and time records, this matter has nothing to do with them at all.
The reason why they were able to escape was that they barely survived by holding a piece of rotten wood and relying on the strong physique they had gained from working as laborers for a long time.
And people call them 'cowards,' saying they're stealing other people's positions.
In fact, they drifted at sea for a long time, and the last rescue ship even wanted to turn a blind eye when it spotted them.
The weather in February was nice, but the skies in Chicago were heavy.
Regarding the convening of the first Chinese General Association, the topics raised were sharp.
It also unveils the inner scars of the self-proclaimed civilized countries, which are full of holes under the beautiful veil of European and American countries.
The media fell silent, and representatives from Washington left the venue the next afternoon.
But the meeting continued, and the Los Angeles News Corp. continued to broadcast it, except that in Harry's office at headquarters, the phone was about to burst.
After three days of attendance, Li Zitao made an opening speech and never took the stage again.
However, the progress of the meeting and the fermentation reaction of the outside world are under his control, and the think tank is also closely monitoring the progress of things.
What they want is the support of public opinion and the public, not to take advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble.
At this time, if there is violence, the previous efforts will be in vain, and no one likes the abusive people, let alone sympathizes with them.
Sympathy is short-lived only when it does not affect one's own vital interests.
On the last day of the meeting, a document that had nothing to do with the Chinese was revealed, this time about Pearl Harbor.
A black sailor, bravely using anti-aircraft artillery on the day of the Japanese attack, shot down a Zero fighter.
This was one of the few counterattacks that the fleet was attacked that day, and it was a brilliant result.
But because he was black, this merit was shamelessly suppressed, and he himself was warned and threatened by the Navy.
If he dares to leak this matter, he will be greeted by a court-martial and a trial.
"This is freedom, this... It's the treatment that heroes receive. The hand holding the document was a little pale, and Li Zitao stood on the podium with a pale face.
"Could this be the America that the Founding Fathers expected?"
Then, boom......
The applause and screams that could tear down the roof rang out, and the crowd flocked to the front, just wanting to get closer to the podium.
"Thank you, please stay calm. ”
"We want to let the facts speak for themselves, and the truth will not be covered up forever. Bowing in thanks, Li Zitao quickly disappeared behind the scenes.
That was the end of the three-day meeting, but with a brief statement at the closing ceremony.
Or it would be more appropriate to describe it as a question, but it was published in the newspaper for several days, and countless phone calls came in every day.
Some people scolded the Los Angeles News Corporation for becoming a Chinese lackey, while others said that they would continue to pay attention to this matter and hoped that everyone would be treated fairly.
There were also anonymous threats, which were quietly recorded, and the Los Angeles News Corp. went on doing what it had to do.
The heat wave on the Chinese side has not yet dissipated, and the black community has begun to boil.
It turned out that in the 'National Shame Day', their compatriots became heroes and shot down a Zero fighter, which undermined the confidence of the Japanese.
But he was shamefully oppressed and threatened, and they even wanted to send him to a military court and put the hero in prison?
How can this Nima's endure it?
The spontaneous protest gatherings, which were not organized by anyone, spread outwards from New York and soon spread throughout the East.
Then came the South and the West, with the North reacting the least, but the many blacks who lived in the North did not travel long distances.
Hitchhike or find a way to get to another city and join the protests.
He's a hero, everybody. This slogan quickly spread through the streets and alleys, and received a lot of approval.
When some things are actually on the table, they are not so easy to hide.
Especially at such a special time, it is not only the meritorious service of a black man that is covered up, but also the honor that belongs to all Good Friday soldiers.
That day, it was a shame for them, and a terrible nightmare.
And now they finally learned that it was not that they had done nothing, but that someone had shamelessly covered it up.
