bizarre claim in Early Life

[edit]

This https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bertha_Hosang_Mah#Early_life ..... is ... so wrong.... Lillooet maybe had only one Chinese family (she claims) but Lillooet had a large Chinese community right into the 1930s and '40s dating from its origins in 1858/9.... I note that the source is an academic tirade of the ethnic-bias kind. The Jim family are still in Lillooet and have been there since the original gold rush.... She may have graduated from McGill but she clearly doesn't know much at all about the town she lived in... or the many other Chinese there... nearly all male until after the Great War.... and why should Chinese have separate schooling in a town where mixed-origins are the norm? That's the pretense that segregation is a good thing... I know I know "do not right great wrongs"... meaning wrongs get to stand unchallenged.

So weird.... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 162.216.188.148 (talk) 22:11, 24 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
