write a clear thesis sentence and support it with evidence from the documents and the timeline.

Chinese Exclusion Act

Step 1: Read the timeline carefully. Write a hypothesis for why Chinese immigration

was restricted in 1882. (Use evidence from the events to make a guess why immigration

was restricted).

● Hypothesis: I believe that Chinese immigration was restricted because the

Chinese were being favored rather than Americans for jobs. This could be

suggested due to the Central Pacific Railroad recruited workers from China in

1865.

Step 2: Read Documents A-D. For each, write any evidence you find for why Chinese

immigration was restricted in 1882.

Workers Flyer

Focus Questions:

1. Who wrote the document? Pioneer Laundry Workers

Assembly

2. Who did this organization represent? Knights of Labor

3. Why might the members of this organization held these

views? The members of the organization held their views

because they thought that Chinese do nothing at all in

return.

What evidence does this document provide about why Chinese

immigration was restricted in 1882?

can influence Doc. A due to the decline in products and

importation.

every industry/company being affected by this.

Document C:

Congressional

Testimony of

Franklin Pixley

Focus Questions:

1. What is Pixley’s argument for ending Chinese

immigration? Pixley’s argument for ending Chinese

immigration is wanting to keep it because he states that

the “aliens” are unchangeable and wouldn’t accept

American behavior.

2. Where was Pixley attorney General? Knowing what you

do about where the Chinese immigrated to, how might this

affect Pixley’s information?

3. Where did Pixley give his testimony? What does this

suggest about how big of an issue Chinese Immigration

was to the government? Pixley gave his testimony at the

House of Congress, making it a big deal since it was told

at two HOC.

immigration was restricted in 1882?

perpetual, unchanging, and unchangeable alien element

perspective (view on the issue) different than the other

documents? Wong Ar Chong wrote this document and his

perspective is against the senator’s support of banning

Chinese immigration.

2. Aside from this different view, what information in Chong’s

deals with similar issues that are found in Document A?

What issues are similar from Document C? Document A

talks about the jobs, Document C criticizes the chinese,

and Document D explains the whole thing.

immigration was restricted in 1882?
