This may be true but that doesn't mean China is to blame. Millions of people are indirectly responsible for the virus, because this was once in a blue moon-type scenario that happened with a series of unfortunate events that happened to take its full effect in China. We are all to blame, the human race for being careless as we were not specifically the Chinese. Society always finds a way to blame some community or person for a problem, big or small. If there is a problem and in the eyes of the people there is something or someone to blame, they will be punished regardless of the severity or if the punishment is even justified. If the mass majority doesn't like it then there will be punishments. China is blamed for Covid and the chaos it has created and that's not fair because China contributed to the viruses origin just as much as you are I have.]]> 2021-05-14 05:02:13 UTC https://padlet.com/dbrasket1606/vebd8kknw94rm30k/wish/1523711846 Zachary dbrasket1606 https://padlet.com/dbrasket1606/vebd8kknw94rm30k/wish/1523711847 1882
The United States passes the Chinese Exclusion Act, suspending the immigration of Chinese laborers to the United States and denying Chinese the right to become American citizens.  It is the first U. S. restriction on immigration based on race and nationality, and stops large scale Chinese immigration for sixty years.

All the Japanese families just started throwing away anything Japanese."- Henry Sakamoto

“Following the bombing of Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7 1941, President Roosevelt issued the order that sent an estimated 117,000 Japanese Americans to internment camps, according to the National Archives. People were forced to live in makeshift stables and huts, eat army rations, and work for less than $5 a day.”

"My Chinese buddies came running to me, they said, 'Hey! You're going to jail.'" - Henry Sakamoto

This story tells the story of 49 students that attended Lincoln in 1949 that were sent to internment camps after Pearl Harbor because of an act that the president passed which forced Japanese residents in the West Coast to be sent to camps. Some of the people who experienced this is Tsuguo “Ike” Ikeda, Kenji Onishi, and Henry Sakamoto.  Each were attendants of Lincoln and sent to camps for no other reason than prejudice. The story or stories are one of the biggest examples of grouping together people by a common denominator usually being race.  That’s punishing someone for something that they cannot control, like punishing a person with turrets for having a tick. It was extremely unreasonable and I truly believe it was an excuse to send Japanese people to camps. Either way,  totally not justified. This really represents that settler colonialism is still prominent in the 20th and 21rst century, that privileged American’s still believe in because of a false sense of obligation.]]> 2021-05-14 05:30:54 UTC https://padlet.com/dbrasket1606/vebd8kknw94rm30k/wish/1523755910 1. How does anti-Asian violence fit into the longer history of settler colonialism in the US dbrasket1606 https://padlet.com/dbrasket1606/vebd8kknw94rm30k/wish/1600005171 Anti-Asian violence and racism has spanned back for a while in US history. It fit's into a longer history of settler colonialism because people are naturally scared of what they aren't familiar with. American's are violent and racist towards asian because we aren't willing to share our soil with other people. We're stubborn. That's why the president sent asian americans into camps. It was an excuse to do a harmful act because they didn;t want asian people on American land because of a false sense of ownership of the very soil they stand on, but in reality we stole this land. In short asian hate relates to settler colonialism because the stubborn nature of American's and our refusal to share our land with people who are different in race and ethnicity was the drive for the racism displayed then and now.]]> 2021-06-11 01:29:27 UTC https://padlet.com/dbrasket1606/vebd8kknw94rm30k/wish/1600005171 2) What are some examples of anti-asian violence and resistance in our history? dbrasket1606 https://padlet.com/dbrasket1606/vebd8kknw94rm30k/wish/1600220174 "Yellow Peril" and the Chinese Massacre of 1871, In In the mid-1800s, Chinese immigrants started arriving and working in the US in large numbers (largely to the West Coast). Many of the jobs they took were dangerous with low pay – but Chinese immigrants would often take them because of financial pressures back home. Essentially giving a pass to white people responsible for anti-Asian violence. The fear of these Chinese laborers taking over became known as “yellow peril” and helped stoke anti-Chinese rhetoric and violence. Non-Asian workers saw Chinese laborers as a threat because they were willing to work at a cheaper rate and might take jobs from them. At the time, Asian immigrants weren’t always protected from violence. The case focused on a white man who killed a Chinese immigrant, with other Chinese people testifying as witnesses.  Japanese Internment Camps, military zones were set up in areas with high populations of Japanese Americans (like California, Oregon, and Washington).Japanese Japanese Internment Camps In 1942, shortly after the bombing of Pearl Harbor, President Franklin D. This policy would have dire consequences for Japanese Americans. In total, there were 10 US internment camps. Congress also issued a formal apology and gave 80,000 Japanese Americans $20,000 in reparations in 1988. In 1948 lawmakers paid $38 million in reparations to Japanese Americans. And as part of the order, Americans of Japanese descent were relocated to internment camps. And would go on to affect more than 120,000 lives – many of whom were American citizens. The defendant was Mitsuye Endo – a 22-year-old American of Japanese ancestry.]]> 2021-06-11 03:19:16 UTC https://padlet.com/dbrasket1606/vebd8kknw94rm30k/wish/1600220174
