The History of the Tong Wars Part 6
from Asian American History 101
Welcome to Season 3, Episode 28. This is part of an ongoing series where we talk about the New York Tong Wars. In this episode we talk about the events in Chinatown that led up to the fourth tong war in New York. The main combatants were still the On Leong Tong and the Hip Sing Tong, but this one was enough to get the federal government involved as well. Hear how growth of the tongs, decreased New York tong control, local corruption, and Federal government decisions all added to the approximately ten year conflict.
