Answer 1

In the 1850s, Chinese workers migrated to the United States, first to work in the gold mines, but also to take agricultural jobs, and factory work, especially in the garment industry. Chinese immigrants were particularly instrumental in building railroads in the American west, and as Chinese laborers grew successful in the United States, a number of them became entrepreneurs in their own right. As the numbers of Chinese laborers increased, so did the strength of anti-Chinese sentiment among other workers in the American economy. This finally resulted in legislation that aimed to limit future immigration of Chinese workers to the United States, and threatened to sour diplomatic relations between the United States and China.

Answer 2

Asian immigrants in the early 1900s faced a multitude of challenges. They faced discrimination throughout the country not only from civilians, but from the government itself. The Chinese Exclusion Act prohibited most immigrants from China and the Gentlemen's Agreement made Japan not be able to allow Japanese emigration to the U.S. Asian immigrants also had to be detained for long periods of time before entering the country. Asian immigrants were also excluded from jobs, housing, and education. The jobs that they did take did not pay well, were difficult, and dangerous.
