Reflection

Walking around the Brooklyn museum, I kept my eye open for things that relate to my heritage, yet I couldn’t find any. The Chinese American people have carried much of an importance since the 1850s, being one of the first immigrants working on the railroad tracks in the Western Region of the Americas, yet I looking around I only encountered one painting of Chinese American culture, one of empowerment but not any of the struggles our people faced, especially the discrimination and oppression during the Gold Rush and the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882.
