¶ … future lie in China or America?
The series of essays pertaining to the winning essays in the Ging Hawk Club Essay Contest in 1936 illustrate different arguments and perspectives regarding the question, "Does my future lie in China or America?"

While Lee gives merit to both Dunn and Hong's essays, primarily because of the diversity it offered in discussing the issue of Chinese-American patriotism to either China or America, CSC...
