selected scenes from the 1944 newsreel produced by the US Government in 1944. The Battle of China(1944) was the sixth film of Frank Capra's Why We Fight propaganda film series. It describes the modern history of China, with the founding of the Republic of China by Sun Yat-sen, and leads on to the Japanese invasion. The invasion of China is explained in terms of the four-step plan for Japanese c...
Thanks for sharing! Quick clarification: the dates this group performed were the 1830s - 1890s.

This rendition of the song finishes too early.

This is a Momento Mori photo.
"hormonised songs" ? 😂
A typo that never was corrected. But a fun one. :)
And now, China out here tryna act tuff and all. Check the history yall.
Melody of 'Old Dan Tucker'.
What was the man's name? Art Chin? The one around the 4 minute mark.
This class is dank
Asian people make the best citizens where ever they go
That first guy, Wong, sounded so New Yahkish, I bet he's from Manhattan or Brooklyn! I thought he was Jewish or Italian or something
ha ha me tooo
so racist
The chinese have always been excluded in the western society. While they include every race barring the chinese!
People here who complain the chinese can be racist too, we all can be racist but the asian's racism is often at lower level compared to other races, just search youtube and compare the experiences non asian's experience in east asia to the chinese experience in the west, we get it a lot worse!!
m.motherjones.com/politics/2014/11/science-of-racism-prejudice East Asians are the second most racist group of Americans grouped by race, behind white people.
who's we?
sorry about your life ;)
"Get off the track" in the final verse should be shouted, not sung, as quoted in "Excelsior: Journals of the Hutchinson Family Singers," Dale Cockrell, Pendragon Press, 1989: "And when they came to the chorus-cry...the way they cried 'Get off the track'...they forgot the harmony and shouted after another...like an alarmed multitude of spectators, about to witness a terrible catastrophe...it was glorious to witness them alighting down again from their wild flight into the current of the song."
Indeed!
They portray China as a pacific country they got to be fucking joking
It’s called propaganda.
Stay in Britain for that. :) Anyway Germans outstripped the British in USA as the majority by the mid 1800s. But it's okay. I know you're uneducated.. Nobody cares about you making UK "pure British". Lol. Please move "BACK THERE" as soon as possible. I hope you own a passport but I highly doubt so.
American people all immigrate not only for white people or black people or asian or Arabian!
real American is indian!we all come from Europe,asia and Africa!
Yet still in 2013 Mainland Chinese attitudes and laws regarding all non-Chinese are racist and xenophobic in the extreme.Taiwan has similar attitudes and the people of Hong Kong are known to be among the most racist in the world. Oh wait! - Sorry. Only White Americans can be racist. Silly me!
1st, Seung-Hui Cho is Korean. Anti-Chinese sentiment exists in Korea. Also Asians play a key part in American society and contribute to the American economy. I am Filipino but I was born in the US and though I never lived in the US, I do have US citizenship and a US passport. I live in New Zealand now and my girlfriend Meg is British-New Zealander and I still love the US and I want to join the US Air Force or US Naval Aviation. Many Filipinos, Chinese and Koreans serve in the US military.
I am a Filipino living in New Zealand and I think America is a melting pot. Most white Americans are German and Irish and many other Americans are African, Latino, Asian (particularly Filipino, Chinese, Korean and Indian), Pacific Islander and Arabic. My girlfriend Meg is British-New Zealander and she's white. Also 250,000 Americans live in the Philippines and we welcome them. I was born in Contra Costa, California, USA and I have US citizenship and a US passport but never lived in the US.
Maybe African immigrants perhaps??? There are tons of Africans in Guangzhou where I lived for a year.
This is an outstanding documentary series and I am shocked that it is so difficult to find clips from. I especially liked the end credits music.
@EnglishEthnicPride2 Ha, america was overtaken by germans as early as 1820, by the irish as soon as the 1840s. I seriously doubt if Anglo-Americans were ever truly the majority in America at any given point.
@EnglishEthnicPride2 what about the British being in Hong Kong...tell me something about that.
This is a fantastic documentary. I wish it was available on DVD. I loved the end credits montage/music.
the hutchinsons need to be remembered!
thank you for posting this
Like it thanks a lot. I heard there were 3 parts. where is the other 2?
