Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Elmer Potter Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 1929-1930 Description An account of the resource The story starts with a small racist jab at Chinese tea shops by having the narrator imply that Chinese tea shops were not as valuable as people seemed to think they were. There is a line in the short story that calls one man a "yellow-skinned artist." The narrator makes the comment of wanting to know Chinese mythology as well as they know that of the Greek showing fascination in the Eastern culture. The expansive knowledge about the Greeks contrasts with the limited knowledge of Chinese culture to reflect the politics of world history and education of non-American cultures within the U.S. Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource Print Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived Virginia Historical Baptist Society Richmond, Virginia Title A name given to the resource Tea Shop Reminiscences The Messenger Type The nature or genre of the resource short stories Subject The topic of the resource China Fiction Racism in language
