Today, the American Chinese influence is growing, but as Obama said, they still face multiple unequal treatment, it is gratifying that the situation is changing, happiness and rights need to fight for Chinese Americans, of course, also case.

May each year in the United States of the "Asian Pacific American Heritage Month", the 24th U.S. President Barack Obama at the White House to celebrate. He made special mention of American history for the construction of the railway laborers made great contributions. However, for more than 100 years arduous journey unfairly treated that part of Chinese Americans, the U.S. Congress is still owed an apology.

May 27, Chinese associations from across the United States on behalf of the official petition to the U.S. Congress, 1882, urging Congress to pass the "Chinese Exclusion Act" apologize to the Chinese people.

"Chinese Exclusion Act" is the United States Congress on May 6, 1882, signed, unique in American history against a rejection of ethnic immigration bill. "Chinese Exclusion Act" along with other discriminatory bills for up to 60 years time, prohibit the Chinese in the United States to buy a house, the Chinese ban intermarriage with whites, prohibiting Chinese in government service, or even prohibit Chinese wife and children emigrated to the U.S. and other serious violations of basic human rights. 128 years later, the U.S. Congress has yet to apologize for the Chinese nation.

100 years ago, when the Chinese began to take root in the United States, they are undoubtedly vulnerable groups. Today, as the United States fourth largest Chinese ethnic minorities, about 400 million people, and its political influence is getting stronger. But as Obama said on the 24th, the United States still faces multiple Chinese unequal treatment. Obviously, except for American society inherent factors, the Chinese current situation with its own relationship with unavoidable. Apology is important, deep introspection and change some of their own life skills model is also noteworthy.

Although the number of Chinese American public, but remained weak, one important reason is the lack of awareness of politics. Chinese across the ocean to the United States, only a simple majority of the original desire that want to feel better themselves and their families live, children have a good future. Therefore, the Chinese generally only know work hard, do not care about politics, do not participate in social activities. Over time, the Chinese became forgotten by society groups. American "One Hundred" Prior to the survey, at least 28% of the respondents indicated that they rarely or never have been in contact with the Chinese. Not actively participate in politics, which means fewer Chinese fight for their own interests in a legitimate way.

Chinese came to the United States, settling the Chinese nation for thousands of years to uphold the virtues of a so-called "model minority." But some Chinese has become too "unruly", to pursue the principle of multi-less attitude, failing to dare to come forward. In some Chinese subconscious, or even that he is the sponsor of the "second-class citizen" by some unfair treatment are inevitable. On this point, the Chinese were attacked from multiple instances without alarm evident. This sends a wrong message, some people think that the Chinese are a group can be any mercy of the "Lamb." In New York and Los Angeles and other places, recently took place dozens of incidents of violence against the Chinese.

In addition, some among Chinese Americans still lack of solidarity. Some Chinese "failing matter concerns an armchair", each cleaning the snow in front, to gangsters have a chance. Even in broad daylight the Chinese community, and they did violence against the Chinese, looting, and then sped away. May 16 evening, the United States only two months of 23-year-old Chinese female student Yao Yu in New York was a Mexican-American man who rapes, and was head of a metal pipe to beat severely brain death. Access to the street police surveillance video showed the suspects dragged lane street will Yao Yu, the Chinese have been two to three next stop onlookers, but then turned away.

Thankfully, the situation is changing. In the Chinese community's efforts, the California Legislature in 2009 unanimously passed a motion officially recognized 150 years ago on the persecution of Chinese immigrants, and unfair persecution apologize. Today, the Chinese American community has asked Congress for the first time together, "Chinese Exclusion Act" apologize to the Chinese people. Happiness and rights need to win, for Chinese Americans, of course, is true.
