After the California gold rush brought thousands of Chinese to California, however, Asian immigrants faced restrictive laws and occasional violence. In the late 1800s Chinese, and eventually other Asians, were excluded from citizenship . These laws were repealed during World War II , followed by further immigration-law changes, making it easier for Asians to enter the United States. Today, Asian immigrants have a high rate of assimilation and participation in the American mosaic. Gold Rush Boom The Chinese were the first Asians to arrive in large numbers. By the 1830s Chinese were selling goods in New York City and toiling in Hawaiian sugarcane fields.

Whatever the weather, be thankful for waking to a new day and all its possibilities. Be open to those possibilities. What happened to day in history? Those Were The Days. Dean Koontz: The Taking We all have them. The “to do” lists; the “priority” lists. The taxes are due; the car needs a tune-up; you have a dentist appointment. The lists are endless, time consuming, nerve wracking. We are followed by a sense of urgency in so many, many things. We call it survival. But we often fail to see that word, that “survival” word as it applies to others and as it applies to the world we choose to live in and to leave to our children. Oh, yes, the children. Where are they on your priority list? What if you woke tonight, in deep dark of the middle of the night, to find a hard rain falling; a hard, alien rain that was washing away all you knew the earth and civilization to be? What then would be on your priority list?

Statistics about the Vietnam War "No event in American history is more misunderstood than the Vietnam War. It was misreported then, and it is misremembered now. Rarely have so many people been so wrong about so much. Never have the consequences of their misunderstanding been so tragic." [Nixon] The Vietnam War has been the subject of thousands of newspaper and magazine articles, hundreds of books, and scores of movies and television documentaries. The great majority of these efforts have erroneously portrayed many myths about the Vietnam War as being facts. [Nixon] Myth: Most American soldiers were addicted to drugs, guilt-ridden about their role in the war, and deliberately used cruel and inhumane tactics. The facts are: 91% of Vietnam Veterans say they are glad they served [Westmoreland] 74% said they would serve again even knowing the outcome [Westmoreland] There is no difference in drug usage between Vietnam Veterans and non veterans of the same age group (from a Veterans Administration study) [Westmoreland] Isolated atrocities committed by American soldiers produced torrents of outrage from antiwar critics and the news media while Communist atrocities were so common that they received hardly any attention at all.

38. Vietnam War 912) http//www.tappedin.org/info/teachers/vietnam1.htm As a watershed event in modern american history, the vietnam war is an integral part of America today. http://www.42explore.com/vietnam.htm

The Topic: Vietnam War Easier - Vietnam is a small country in Southeast Asia. The Vietnam War was the longest war in which the United States took part. The war began in 1957 and ended in 1975. At that time, Vietnam was separated into Communist-ruled North Vietnam and noncommunist South Vietnam. North Vietnam wanted to end U.S. support of South Vietnam and to unite the north and south into a single nation. The United States and the South Vietnamese army tried to stop them. Harder - The Vietnam War was a second phase of fighting in Vietnam. In 1946 Vietnam was part of the colony of French Indochina and the Vietnamese fought for their independence. The United States provided military equipment, but the French were defeated in 1954. Vietnam was then divided into North and South Vietnam. Communists saw the Vietnam War as an extension of their struggle with France, as another attempt by a foreign power to rule Vietnam, and as a war of national liberation. China and the Soviet Union supported the Vietnamese Communists with war materials but not troops.

The Vietnam War protests The Vietnam war protests,or Anti-war movement, initiated by college students, was instrumental in questioning the policies surrounding America's involvement in Indochina's affairs. Vietnam has always been rife with conflict. Migrants from China first settled in the tiny, lush country bordering the South China Sea over 3000 years ago. Vietnam boasts a diverse topography of valleys, rivers and highlands. It is home to over 40 million people whose origins stem from an equally diverse mix of tribes and kingdoms that subsisted mostly on what they harvested on terraced parcels of land. Rice was the greatest commodity and is still a major export today. Invasion by neighbouring armies from Thailand, Cambodia, Laos and China posed a constant threat. China did finally manage to impose its rule over the country, but the Vietnamese eventually overthrew the imperial yoke in 938 AD. A succession of Vietnamese Emperors brought peace, stability, prosperity and the opportunity for Vietnam to create its own national identity. bodyOffer(32093) Rebellions were common over the next 500 years as Vietnam continued to grow and change, not only its political views but also its varied religious ideologies like Buddhism and Taoism. French and British domination also threatened. The French established sovereignity in 1863 and maintained it for almost a century. Vietnam became a country of the rich and the poor, of corruption, of subjugated peasants, of bandits and frequent uprisings and revolts. France built opulent cities like Saigon and Hanoi, European-styled mansions and churches, plantations and industries that bolstered their economy but did little to help the peasant. They also introduced a new cash crop - the poppy. Opium trade and export was soon as prolific and profitable in the region the French now called Indochina as the rice trade. Japan too was looking at Vietnam as a means to feed its emerging country and its future armies.
