Chinese Immigrants:
The USA is the one of the richest countries in the world, so many people wants to move to USA especially chinese people, some of them came with their whole families, some of them are single men and women, actually men is more than women who moved to USA. And many of the men will choose european women to get marriage, because less of the chinese women are in USA. However, the USA still has a racial discrimination, for example, the famous thing happened in 1982, the men who is chinese called Vincent Chin(see the picture) and he born in USA, but he was killed by the white people, it is a murder. Even now, chinese people usually live together in chinatown.
