Many white people believed that these immigrants did not belong and they were destroying “white purity”. Even after the Chinese Exclusion Act was repealed, many white people still held the belief that Chinese people did not belong in America, and that they should return back to their home country. ]]> 2022-04-05 14:00:36 UTC https://padlet.com/chaaron1/by05mznnsg97ihxm/wish/2130727403 https://padlet.com/chaaron1/by05mznnsg97ihxm/wish/2130728501 intensified xenophobia especially towards Chinese immigrants and continuing with Chinese immigrants being painted as economic competition and being used as a scapegoat for loss of economic opportunity ]]> 2022-04-05 14:01:08 UTC https://padlet.com/chaaron1/by05mznnsg97ihxm/wish/2130728501 https://padlet.com/chaaron1/by05mznnsg97ihxm/wish/2130729124 They affected them by making racists more comfortable being open about their anti-Chinese rhetoric - people had to carry proof that they weren't Chinese or be vouched for by a "pure" white American]]> 2022-04-05 14:01:27 UTC https://padlet.com/chaaron1/by05mznnsg97ihxm/wish/2130729124 https://padlet.com/chaaron1/by05mznnsg97ihxm/wish/2130729929 The Chinese Exclusion Act led to white miners participating in hate crimes against Chinese miners.

Additionally, since the Chinese Exclusion Act stemmed from white workers believing that Chinese immigrants were why the economy was dipping for them, it had already been ingrained that it was social acceptable to have racial prepuces against Chinese immigrants. Similarly with the Muslim ban, some citizens blindly followed Trump and others saying that all Muslims had ties to terrorist organizations after 9/11.]]> 2022-04-05 14:01:56 UTC https://padlet.com/chaaron1/by05mznnsg97ihxm/wish/2130730134 vmrose2 https://padlet.com/chaaron1/by05mznnsg97ihxm/wish/2130730292 The Chinese Exclusion Act worsened people's already negative attitudes towards Chinese immigrants who were already in the US. It led to violence and discrimination in the workplace and everyday life towards Chinese immigrants. The Act fostered so much anti-immigration, racist, and xenophobic ideals in american people that the effects of it were seen still after the Act was repealed.]]> 2022-04-05 14:02:00 UTC https://padlet.com/chaaron1/by05mznnsg97ihxm/wish/2130730292 https://padlet.com/chaaron1/by05mznnsg97ihxm/wish/2130730961 The ban fostered an environment where people believed racial/religious prejudice is acceptable because the act is solely based off of prejudice in the 1st place.

Even after the act was lifted white Americans still believed that the Chinese had no place in this country. ]]> 2022-04-05 14:02:21 UTC https://padlet.com/chaaron1/by05mznnsg97ihxm/wish/2130730973 afgerbie2 https://padlet.com/chaaron1/by05mznnsg97ihxm/wish/2130731211 The Chinese Exclusion Act led to an increase in hate crimes towards immigrants who had already settled in the U.S. White people believed that their jobs were being stolen by Chinese immigrants, though that was not actually the case. Even when the act had been repealed, hate crimes still occurred because people's prejudice did not go away, and it set the stage for further harsh immigration bans based on prejudice and racism. ]]> 2022-04-05 14:02:28 UTC https://padlet.com/chaaron1/by05mznnsg97ihxm/wish/2130731211 https://padlet.com/chaaron1/by05mznnsg97ihxm/wish/2130732273 The Muslim Ban allowed white Americans to further their racist ideas and treatments toward immigrants, making the lives of immigrants harder.

My classes used to be 22-24 students. Every year since, my ESL classes have shrunk. This year, my class size is 10 students.

With Thomas Geary's extension of the Exclusion Act for 10 more years also came the forced carriage of documentation for Chinese people in America, and many people (xenophobes) took advantage of that law and used it as an excuse for more discriminatory acts. After the Act was repealed, the Chinese population was still very low, and hate crimes and discrimination against the Chinese population still continued.]]> 2022-04-05 14:03:42 UTC https://padlet.com/chaaron1/by05mznnsg97ihxm/wish/2130733764 pfmartinet2 https://padlet.com/chaaron1/by05mznnsg97ihxm/wish/2130734303 The Muslim ban left Muslims to be constantly stereotyped even after the Muslim ban was repealed.

When these bans were passed it showed US citizens, especially white ones, that its ok to discriminate and hate against people who don't align with what they think is "American" even though patriotism is a very individual experience. ]]> 2022-04-05 14:06:43 UTC https://padlet.com/chaaron1/by05mznnsg97ihxm/wish/2130740401 elamadi1_2 https://padlet.com/chaaron1/by05mznnsg97ihxm/wish/2130745318 The Chinese Exclusion Act allowed for violence and discrimination in the work place and in their daily lives.
