Welcome to
Season 3, Episode 42. Welcome to installation 7 of our series on
the Tong Wars. In this episode, we talk about the end of the Fourth
Tong War in New York and some of the lasting impact of the tongs to
this day. How did the Fourth Tong War end? Do Tong’s still exist?
These are questions we answer in this episode. If you’re interested
in reading about the New York Tong Wars in detail, we recommend the
book The Tong
Wars by Scott Seligman. In our recurring segment, we
bring back Organizations You Should Know and talk about the
Chinese Historical Society of
America which has a physical location as well as
virtual and traveling exhibitions. They have plenty of great
educational resources and collections to learn more about the
experiences of Chinese Americans. You can visit, volunteer, or
donate to
help them. For previous episodes and information, please visit our
