'Sinners' Shines History On Chinese Immigrants Living In Mississippi

🇺🇸 This Veterans Day, we honor the Chinese American servicemen from the Mississippi Delta who served in World War II. Many of their families ran small grocery stores and lived in segregated Southern towns. Yet, they volunteered to defend a country where they didn’t always have equal rights. Their service reminds us: Asian American history is American history. Even when it isn’t widely taught. Even when their stories were nearly forgotten. Over 20,000 Chinese Americans from across the U.S. serv

missippi vibes on Instagram: "Chinese immigrants began arriving in the Delta in the late 19th century, particularly after the Civil War and Reconstruction. Cotton planters, seeking cheap labor to replace formerly enslaved Black workers, recruited Chinese men—many from Guangdong Province in southern China, fleeing poverty, war, and the aftermath of events like the Taiping Rebellion.
