Marriage Money and Migration

09/27/2005

Scene: November 1999, WTO Seattle. A first-generation Chinese American in scrubby clothes wanders the streets of Downtown; pepper spray cannons fire overhead, glass shatters left and right. A high-six-figure check warms his pocket. For the first time in his life, he's rich. Soon, he’ll offer a woman from China a hand up in the global economy, with a fiancée visa to the United States. Today, he looks back. Did he do the right thing? Marriage, money, and migration in part three of our series.
