In the 1870s, many Americans harbored resentment towards Chinese immigrants due to economic competition and cultural differences. The influx of Chinese laborers, particularly during the construction of the Transcontinental Railroad, led to fears of job loss among white workers, who believed that Chinese immigrants would accept lower wages. Additionally, racial prejudice and xenophobia fueled negative stereotypes, portraying Chinese individuals as unassimilable and threatening to American values. This animosity culminated in discriminatory laws, such as the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882, which aimed to limit Chinese Immigration and uphold white supremacy.
