Chinese migrant given US law licence 125 years on



The California Supreme Court has posthumously awarded a law licence to a Chinese immigrant who was barred from becoming a lawyer 125 years ago. Hong Yen Chang was barred from practising law in 1890 by the same court because "persons of the Mongolian race" were not granted citizenship. via Pocket http://ift.tt/1MLiwlo
