From Bahadurs research I learned that not only women from Asia were having a rough time, Indentured women were forced to sign this contract that would make them work without pay. A limit I would say that Bahadur faced was when her great-grandmother left without mentioning where she was going, so she had nothing to really look into and didn’t really know if her great-grandmother was part the women who were working without pay. Another limit I would say is when Bahadur found those diaries on that ship that had confidential documents on supervisors who slept with the Indian women. This would be a limit because as we know our true his tends to be swept under the rug or not enough is being told, so its difficult to pin point our history\/background or in Bahadurs case her background.<\/p>\n

John became a citizen through his father who had already moved to the U.S and was already a citizen, then he started working in the real estate industry and then started his career at Kaufman & Broad finance department. John’s oral history confirms what i knew about Asian-Americans.

So it’s a first-person confirmation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
