Hi everyone,
For class on Monday, 09/14:
Read: Beth Lew-Williams, John Doe Chinaman: A Forgotten History of Chinese Life Under American Racial Law (2025), “Introduction”
Ask:
- What argument/claim is she making?
- What kind of evidence does she use to support her claims?
- How does she structure this chapter?
- How would you summarize these ideas to someone who has not read the work?
