Anti-Chinese sentiment greatly increased in the 1880s. Explain the reasons for this growing resentment and describe two specific instances where negative feelings toward Chinese turned into action.

Answer 1

Answer:

Anti-Chinese sentiment or sinophobia has existed in the United States since the mid 19th century, shortly after Chinese emigrants first arrived on the shores of the United States.[1] It surfaced in the 1860s, when the Chinese helped build the First Transcontinental Railroad. It was made manifest in the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882, shutting down not only further immigration but also naturalization. Its origins can be traced to the American merchants, missionaries, and diplomats who sent home from China "relentlessly negative" reports of the people they encountered there.[2] These attitudes were transmitted to Americans who never left North America, triggering talk of the Yellow Peril, and continued through the Cold War during McCarthyism. Some modern anti-Chinese sentiment may be the result of China's rise as a major world power seen to be at the expense of countries outside of China.

Anti-Chinese sentiment or sinophobia is a broad feeling of opposition or hostility to Chinese culture, the politics and policies of the People's Republic of China and, at times, towards specific groups of Chinese people
