28 sett 1882 anni - Chinese Exclusion Act (Social)

Descrizione:

The Chinese Exclusion Act was the nation’s first law to ban immigration by race or nationality. The act, which was renewed and enforced until 1943, banned Chinese immigration for ten years and prohibited the Chinese from becoming citizens. The Act didn’t stop anti-Chinese violence—Seattle and Tacoma, Washington, and Rock Springs, Wyoming, were rocked by devastating riots in 1885 and 1886.
