What happened between the 1860s when Chinese were welcomed and 1882 when they were excluded?

Between the 1860s and 1882, the Chinese population in the United States initially grew due to the demand for labor, particularly during the California Gold Rush and the construction of the Transcontinental Railroad. However, as economic conditions fluctuated and anti-immigrant sentiments rose, particularly during economic downturns, fear and resentment towards Chinese laborers grew among white workers. This culminated in the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882, which marked the first significant law to restrict immigration based on nationality, effectively barring Chinese laborers from entering the U.S. and reflecting broader trends of racism and xenophobia.


How informed is American public opinion?

The American people (US citizens) are generally well informed in relevance to their time. Another words, during the 1860s in the US, most Americans were more informed about the US Civil War since they had to live thru it. At the same time, they would have absolutely no knowledge whatsoever about the Vietnam War, since they didn't live in the 1960s. Bottom line: Americans living in the 1860s would be generally knowledgeable about the 1860s, Americans living in the 1960s would be generally knowledgeable about the 1960s, etc.
