Chapter 43 Summary

Emmy emails Maizy, explaining that America repealed the Chinese Exclusion Act in 1943 during World War II because China and America were on the same side. In the 1960s, Chinese families could finally enter the US again, although the paper sons worried that the government would deport them if anyone discovered their forged papers. Emmy tells Maizy that just because something is a law does not necessarily mean it is right.
