In fact, many Chinese came to United States and Canada to build railroad. Many died due to the harsh condition that "provided" by the rail road company. They were very close to being treated as slaves. They were discriminated and they were ignored when they seek help from the police. It left them with no choice but to lived together and that's how Chinatown was built.
If the city leaders had any brain they’d be finding ways to encourage business and community in this area. Where is all this property tax money for thousands of million dollar houses GOING? In their pockets?
Wow I didn't know there's going to be a new park in J-town. I just thought they were done building that one ugly-ass apartment building and were going to build another ugly-ass apartment building lol.

Cupertino is a successful city so it’s ok
Chinatown in SF used to be where all the Latinos lived, and then they pushed us out to the Mission District.
We say LatinX now.
So the Latinos can speak Cantonese?

Never forget the Chinese came here to pick gold off the ground and sell opium.
🤓
Your point being?
Actually they made a ton of money by providing food services and laundry services to the gold miners. 😂
Never forget, European Colonist came here to steal land and commit genocide towards the Indigenous Americas, Asia, and Africa.
Never Forget, "Opium Wars 1839-1860" is about European Colonist pushing Opium onto China for the secrets of Tea Making.
