Excellent talk by American author James Bradly, worth listening, even though it is a bit long. This exploitation of the Chinese people goes way back in the US history and also applies to Australia, where many Chinese migrants from China in the “gold-rush” days worked very, very hard to help developed these countries. Even now, the hidden discrimination against the Chinese all around the world is being practiced, with US and Australia building up their confrontation with China using propaganda, like the “South China Sea” episode and later down the road create an incident to start the war with China, something like the 9-11 episode to justify the wars in the Middle-East.
Watch the full version of the Meet the Author program, featuring James Bradley, presenting his fourth book, “The China Mirage: The Hidden History of American Disaster in Asia” at the Marines’ Memorial Club on April 30, 2015. Mr. Bradley’s father, John Bradley, was a Navy Corpsman and one of the men that raised the American flag during the Battle for Iwo Jima. James Bradley’s New York Times best seller, “Flags of Our Fathers” was made into a film directed by Clint Eastwood.
