About this listen
the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 — the first U.S. federal law to ban immigration based on race and nationality. This episode traces the economic tensions, political debates, labor conflicts, and legal decisions that led to exclusion, and follows its nationwide impact on Chinese communities, immigration policy, and American law for more than six decades.
