“For some reason, when writing this ‘21’ blog posting - I was reminded that when the Central Pacific Railroad joined the Union Pacific Railroad in 1869 at Promontory Point - to create the first transcontinental railroad, not one Chinese laborer was included in the famous photo, although up to 12,000 Chinese worked for Central Pacific (making up to 90% of the workforce).”

I can’t believe racism is still an issue. And it’s not just with white people.
