An impressive website created in 2016 that is an accurate and comprehensive presentation of the landmark 1927 U.S. Supreme Court case, Gong Lum v. Rice, that upheld school segregation of Chinese school children, denying Martha and Bertha Lum admission to the white school in Rosedale, MS. in 1923.( It appears to be the creation of a high school student who was a Chinese immigrant, Cameron Tichy.)
