Yung Wing was unique, born in 1828 before the Opium Wars, he was the first Chinese person to graduate from a major US college in 1854. He tried and failed to join the Union army to fight the Confederacy and returned to China to negotiate with the Taiping rebels.

Yung Wing, who was born in a village in southern China in 1828 and became the first Chinese person ever to be educated at a major US college, graduating from Yale in 1854. He returned to China and visited the Taiping rebel capital of Nanjing, giving active consideration to helping them in their struggle to overthrow the Manchu government. He was a part of the missionary Christian community of the United States, and a great believer in the strengths and benefits of Western civilization, but also fiercely patriotic and proud of being Chinese.
