The Gold Rush was one of the largest mass migration events in US history. After gold was discovered in California, people from all over the world rushed there in search of fortune. But not everyone benefited from the Gold Rush, and the full story of the event has at times been left out of history. Learn about the discrimination and unfair tax laws surrounding the Gold Rush and the many people who participated in the event.
