Goldsmith's Friend Abroad Again

Gelesen von John Greenman

(4,602 Sterne; 49 Bewertungen)

This satire on the U.S.A.'s myth of being the "Home of the Oppressed, where all men are free and equal", is unrelenting in its pursuit of justice through exposure. It draws a scathingly shameful portrait of how Chinese immigrants were treated in 19th century San Francisco. (Introduction by John Greenman) (0 hr 37 min)
