I can't recall ever hearing about any Asian-Americans in my history classes as a child and teen. I wonder if any other DUers had a similar experience. Maybe those younger than I did hear such history. I would be curious to hear of others' experiences.

Thank you for your post! It is sparking a desire in me to start doing some research.
