Chapter Eight Hundred and Eighty Fifth Zoom Move

"The Chinese Exclusion Act did not come from a certain person, but the power of the entire American government and the will of the people..."

"I think everyone here is very clear 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, and become an indispensable part of society. We..."

"Only in this way can we completely change the status of the Chinese, make everyone stand upright, and make the white ghosts dare not despise us anymore..."

The delegates at the meeting stood up collectively, clapping their hands and giving thunderous applause.

Especially the representatives from the workers and peasants clapped the most vigorously. Their arms were raised parallel to their shoulders, and their palms collided as if they were about to smash something.

The roads around Chinatown have been blocked, and special mounted police are responsible for maintaining order.

This is for fear that some extremists will take the opportunity to cause harm.

After all, this kind of thing has not happened before, and the Chinese who refuse to accept here are the wealthiest and most powerful people in the United States.

If something goes wrong, it will have a considerable impact on the relationship between China and the United States.

Representatives from the Far East were also sent over, and the money donated by overseas Chinese was not in vain.

This is the time when the country is needed and the country needs them. Only with one heart can we go further and better.

Although this is a meeting of non-governmental organizations, it has received far more attention than anyone imagined.

First of all, in Washington, the Secretary of State represented the President in person and listened to the appeals and wishes of the Chinese people.

Secondly, most influential public figures from all walks of life also attended the meeting.

The whole process of the meeting was broadcast and reported by newspapers and radio stations under the Los Angeles News Corporation.

The time of the meeting is very tight, and there is not much time to waste, so let's get to the point from the beginning.

The Chinese Exclusion Act, this is a topic that no one can get around.

Chinese representatives came to the stage and talked about the difficulties and discrimination they encountered in their work and life.

He also expressed his expectations for the United States, hoping to enjoy equal treatment in this country that claims 'freedom'.

At the same time, a large amount of masked data was revealed.

The contribution of the Chinese in the great construction of the west, how many bones of the Chinese are buried under the railway line, doing the most dangerous and dirty work with 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 to be abused for no reason.

Issues such as these have made the American public realize that the fairness they thought before does not exist at all.

The next day, a document was disclosed again.

When the Titanic sank that year, several Chinese employees were accused by European and American countries, and people wanted to attribute their mistakes to them.

But no matter from the various 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 gained from long-term labor.

And people called them 'cowards,' saying they took everyone else's place.

In fact, they were at sea for so long that the rescue ship tried to turn a blind eye when they spotted them.

The weather in February is fine, but the skies in Chicago are heavy.

Regarding the convening of the first Chinese Association, the topics raised are sharp.

It also reveals the beauty of Europe and the United States, which claims to be a civilized country.

The media fell silent, and Washington representatives walked out the next afternoon.

But the meeting was still going on, and the Los Angeles News Group continued to broadcast it, but in Harry's office at the headquarters, the phone was about to explode.

After attending the meeting for three days, Li Zitao made the opening, but never appeared on stage again.

But the progress of the meeting and the reaction of the outside world are all under his control, and the think tank is also paying close attention to the progress of the matter.

What they want is opinion and public support,

Instead of taking the opportunity to make trouble.

If violence occurs at this time, the previous efforts will come to naught. No one likes people who abuse violence, let alone sympathize with them.

Only when it does not affect one's own vital interests, sympathy will appear briefly.

On the last day of the meeting, a piece of material that had nothing to do with the Chinese was released again, this time about Pearl Harbor.

A black sailor bravely used anti-aircraft guns to shoot down a Zero fighter on the day of the Japanese attack.

This was one of the few counterattacks when the fleet was attacked that day, and it achieved brilliant results.

But because he is black, this achievement was shamelessly suppressed, and he himself was warned and threatened by the Navy.

If he dared to leak the matter, he would be greeted by a court-martial and a trial.

"This is freedom, this...is the treatment that heroes receive." Li Zitao stood on the podium with a pale face while holding the document.

"Is this the America the founding fathers expected?" When the voice fell, the scene fell into a brief silence.

Then, boom...

There were applause and screams that could lift the ceiling, and the people at the scene rushed forward, just wanting to get closer to the podium.

"Thank you, please stay calm."

"We must let the facts speak for themselves, and the truth will not be covered up forever." Li Zitao bowed and quickly disappeared behind the scenes.

The three-day conference ended here, but there was a short speech at the closing ceremony.

Or it is more appropriate to describe it as a question, but it was published in the newspaper for several days in a row, and countless phone calls came in every day.

Some people yelled at Los Angeles News Corporation for being a lackey of the Chinese, while others expressed that they would continue to pay attention to this matter and hoped that everyone would be treated fairly.

There were also some anonymous threats, which were recorded quietly, and the Los Angeles News Corporation continued to do what it should.

The heat wave on the Chinese side has not yet dissipated, and the black community has begun to boil.

It turned out that their compatriots became heroes on the "National Shame Day" and shot down a Zero fighter, which hit the confidence of the Japanese.

But he was shamefully oppressed and threatened. They even wanted to court him and put the hero in jail?

How can this shit bear it?

Spontaneous protest gatherings organized by no one spread out from the center of New York, and soon spread to the entire East.

Then came the South and West, the North reacted the least, but many blacks living in the North did not travel long distances.

Get a ride or find a way to reach another city and join the protest.

'He's a hero, everyone. ’ This catchphrase quickly spread throughout the streets and alleys, and got a lot of approval.

When some things are really on the table, it is not so easy to cover up.

Especially at such a special time, what is covered up is not only the meritorious deeds of a black man, but also the honor of all Good Friday soldiers.

That day was a disgrace to them, and it was a terrible nightmare.

And now they finally learned that it wasn't that they didn't do nothing, it was just that someone shamelessly covered it up.
