Newspapers eagerly published reports of their activities, including New Year's festivities, marriages, and restaurant and laundry openings. Beginning in 1882 federal laws banning Chinese immigration and denying citizenship put particular pressure on the community. Sherri Gebert Fuller relates the story of the Chinese from these early days to the 1960s, when a new wave of immigrants, including students, businessmen, and professionals from China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan, began to bring new energy and issues to the community and a flourishing of ties between Minnesota and China.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sherri Gebert Fuller\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 087351470X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780873514705\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Minnesota Historical Society Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/05\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 101\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 6.02w x 0.36d","brand":"Sherri Gebert Fuller","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43992537858303,"sku":"9780873514705","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_da392106-d187-4efa-9366-71a758ea1f94.jpg?v=1683319482","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/chinese-in-minnesota-sherri-gebert-fuller-9780873514705","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
