Immigrants from all over the world were coming to live in America. However, with the rise of immigrants came lower wage employees for factory owners so some factory jobs were going to immigrants and not american born citizens. So economic fears drove the US government to make various moves to limit immigration and more specifically chinese immigration.]]> 2021-09-08 02:53:18 UTC https://padlet.com/gsfabriziani/yqpc4jd6klk0imcj/wish/1723592118 gsfabriziani https://padlet.com/gsfabriziani/yqpc4jd6klk0imcj/wish/1724612906 In the mid to late 1800's immigration to the US from northern and western Europe declined while immigration from southern and eastern Europe increased. This new wave of immigration that was very different from the past waves of immigrants in America. However, the past immigrants saw this new wave of immigrants as lesser and inferior mainly because they were non-Protestant, either Roman-Catholic or Jewish. As the image shows,the ironic situation of the old wave of immigrants not accepting the new wave as they were once not accepted. ]]> 2021-09-08 11:55:48 UTC https://padlet.com/gsfabriziani/yqpc4jd6klk0imcj/wish/1724612906 gsfabriziani https://padlet.com/gsfabriziani/yqpc4jd6klk0imcj/wish/1724631498 This act was put into place after Fidel Castro's revolution.

They received permanent status and resources to help adjust to life in the US. ]]> 2021-09-08 12:06:23 UTC https://padlet.com/gsfabriziani/yqpc4jd6klk0imcj/wish/1724631498 gsfabriziani https://padlet.com/gsfabriziani/yqpc4jd6klk0imcj/wish/1724721019 At the time where this increasing fear, mainly from the West Coast, of Chinese immigrants taking jobs from American citizens as there was a growing number of Chinese laborers in factories and other jobs due to the lower wages factory owners, could charge. So the public, combined with a US government desire to reduce immigration caused the creation of the Chinese exclusion act which curbed the influx of Chinese immigrants by making it impossible or very hard for Chinese immigrants to receive citizenship or permanent residence in the US.
