Reading for March 5th:
Dear favorite Macaulay Seminar 2:
You know that one of the assigned readings for March 5th is listed as Zhou Min, 2001, “Chinese: Divergent Diversities in Immigrant New York,” in Nancy Foner, Ed., New Immigrants in New York. That is incorrect. The correct reading (which I have linked below) is Bernard Wong’s, “The Chinese: Immigrants in New York’s Chinatown” from Nancy Foner’s, Ed., New Immigrants in New York.
