Hanh Nguyen indieWire Defining what it means to be an American has been an imperfect and ongoing struggle since the nation began, but The Chinese Exclusion act is doing its part to make sure that conversation stays alive. Rated: B+ May 30, 2018 Full Review Alan Ng Film Threat It's well-produced, exhaustive in its facts and stories, and its importance. It will also challenge the current discussion of U.S. immigration policy. I've had to shift my thinking as a result. Rated: 4/5 May 29, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews
