Queens of the Mines features the authentic stories of gold rush women who blossomed from the camouflaged, twisted roots of California. In Ah Toy’s final episode, we will finish the story of the true pioneer of San Francisco’s Chinatown, Ah Toy, whose story highlights important aspects of the role the Chinese immigrants played in America’s Largest Migration, The Gold Rush.
