12.The HistoryofChineseAmericansChinese havebeen intheUnited States foralmost twohundred years.In fact,theChinese hadbusiness relations with Hawaiiprior torelationswiththe mainlandwhenHawaii wasnot yetpart oftheUnitedStates.But UnitedStates investmentscontrolledthe capitalof Hawaiiat thattime.In1788,a shipsailed fromGuangzhouto Hawaii.Most ofthe crewmenwere Chinese.They wereconsideredthe pioneersof Hawaii.The ImmigrationCommission reportedthatthefirstChinese arrived intheUnitedStatesin1820,eight in1830and sevenhundred andeightyin
1850.The Chinesepopulation graduallyincreased andreached64,199in
1870.For manyyears itwas commonintheUnitedStatesto associateChineseAmericans withrestaurants andlaundries.People didnot realizethatthe Chinesehad beendriven intothese occupationsbytheprejudice anddiscrimination thatfacedthem inthis country.The firstChinese toreach themainland UnitedStates cameduring theCaliforniaGold Rushof
1849.Like mostoftheother peoplethere,they hadcome tosearchfor gold.In thatlargely unoccupiedland,the menstaked aclaim forthemselvesby placingmarkers inthe ground.However,either becausetheChinese were sodifferentfromtheothers orbecausetheyworked sopatiently thatthey sometimessucceededin turninga seeminglyworthless miningclaim intoa profitableone,they becamethe scapegoatsof theirenvious competitors.They wereharassed inmanyways.Often they were preventedfrom workingtheir claims;some localitiesevenpassed regulationsforbidding themto ownclaims.The Chinesethereforestarted toseek outother waysof earninga living.Some of them beganto dothelaundry forthe whiteminers;others setup smallrestaurants.There werealmostno womenin Californiain thosedays,andtheChinese filleda realneed bydoingthis womanswork*.Some wentto workas farmhandsorasfishermen.In theearly1860s many more ChinesearrivedinCalifornia.This timethe menwereimported aswork crewsto constructthefirsttranscontinental railroad.Theywere sorelyneeded becausetheworkwas sostrenuous anddangerous,anditwascarried onin sucha remotepart ofthe countrythatthe railroad companycould notfindother laborersforthejob.As inthe caseoftheirpredecessors,these Chinesewerealmost allmales;and like them,too,they encounteredagreatdeal ofprejudice.The hostilitygrew especiallystrong aftertherailroadproject wascomplete,andtheimported laborersreturned toCalitbrnia—thousands ofthem,all outofwork.Because there were somanymoreofthemthis time,theseChinese dreweven moreattention thanthe earliergroup did.They wereso verydifferentin everyrespect:intheirphysical appearance,including along pigtailatthe backoftheirotherwise shavedheads;inthestrange,non-Western clothestheywore;intheirspeech fewhad learnedEnglish sincethey plannedtogoback,to China;andintheir religion.They werecontemptuously calledheathenChinese becausethereweremany sacredimages intheir housesof worship.When timeswere hard,theywereblamed forworking forlower wagesand takingjobsawayfromwhite men,who werein manyeases recentimmigrantsthemselves.Anti-Chinese riotsbroke outin severalcities,culminating inarsonand bloodshed.ChinesewerebaiTed fromusing thecourts andalso frombecomingAmerican citizens.Californians beganto demandthat nomore Chinesebepermitted toenter theirstate.Finally,in1882,they persuadedCongress topassthe ChineseExclusion Act,which stoppedthe immigrationofChineselaborers.Many Chinesereturned to their homeland,and theirnumbers declinedsharply intheearly partof thiscentury.However,during theWorld WarII,when Chinawasan allyoftheUnitedStates,the ExclusionlawsA.the skillsthey acquiredatthemotherlandB.local peoplesdiscrimination againstthemC.their highemployment ratesD.their comparativelyhigh pay
