While “America First” echoes through politics in 2025, we revisit the story of the Chinese migrant migrants who laid the steel backbone of the U.S. In the 1860s, over 15,000 Chinese migrant workers were recruited to build the Transcontinental Railroad, the largest infrastructure project in U.S. history. They were lied to and underpaid. They carved through mountains, froze in tunnels, and many of them were erased from history due to racism. Here's their story. | CGTN America
