This site tells the powerful story of Chinese immigrants
who were held prisoner on Angel Island. They were subjected to barbaric
practices, such as intrusive medical exams by Western doctors. As
an expression of their suffering, they wrote poems on the prison
walls. These poems were considered graffiti and painted over, so
their authors begain to carve them into the walls. This site was
designed to educate about this important part of our nation's heritage
and aid in its preservation.
