The Chinese Exclusion Act Ratings & Reviews
Film Threat
Alan Ng
It's well-produced, exhaustive in its facts and stories, and its importance. It will also challenge the current discussion of U.S. immigration policy. I've had to shift my thinking as a result.

Defining what it means to be an American has been an imperfect and ongoing struggle since the nation began, but The Chinese Exclusion act is doing its part to make sure that conversation stays alive.
