1. LAN CASSEL, S. (n.d.). The Chinese in America: A History from Gold Mountain to the New Millennium . Rowman & Littlefield. https://rowman.com/ISBN/9780759100008/The-Chinese-in-America-A-History- from-Gold-Mountain-to-the-New-Millennium Lan offers a comprehensive exploration of the Chinese immigrant experience in Canada, tracing their journey from the Gold Rush era to contemporary times. By way of interviews and archival research, the author illuminates the struggles of Chinese immigrants and their impact on Canada. The reason I picked this source is because the firsthand accounts and it can be used to understand the socio-cultural effect of Chinese immigrants. It will add depth to my essay by giving me a glimpse into the struggles of Chinese immigrants and how they persevered in such a discriminatory society. 2. Parmet, R. D. (1999). Peter Kwong, Forbidden Workers: Illegal Chinese Immigrants and American Labor. New York: The New Press.. International Labor and Working-class History/International Labor and Working-class History., 56, 175–177. https://doi.org/10.1017/s0147547999452883 Kwong's work focuses on the illegal immigration of Chinese laborers to North America, with a particular emphasis on the United States. However, it also provides valuable insights into the challenges faced by Chinese immigrants in Canada. By examining labor exploitation and discriminatory practices, Kwong highlights the systemic barriers to Chinese immigrant integration. I included this source for its comparative perspective and its relevance to understanding the broader context of Chinese immigration. It will contribute to my essay by illuminating the economic dimensions of Chinese immigrant experiences. 3. Peter, L. (n.d.).

By tracing the evolution of immigration legislation and public discourse, the author examines the shifting attitudes towards Chinese immigrants over time. I selected this source for its historical perspective and its relevance to understanding the political dynamics of Chinese immigration. It will inform my essay by contextualizing the socio- political factors that shaped Chinese immigrant experiences in Canada.
