In this series, we’re digging into the U.S. government’s early immigration crackdowns: from the Alien and Sedition Acts of 1798, to the Chinese Exclusion Act, to raids on Mexican-American communities during the Great Depression, and finally to the infamous mass deportation campaign of 1954, Operation Wetback.
We’ll explore the political pressures that sparked these crackdowns, how they were carried out, the resistance against them, and the consequences that still echo today.

14:26 gee does this remind you of anything happening rn?
We were taught the stuff about the Chinese Exclusion act in AP US History, but I don’t recall learning the Mexican half of it, besides something called the Zoot Suit Riots. That’s crazy.
Some of the things you treat as negatives . . . At the very least there is a debate to be had.
Ignorence is bliss
This proof that US isn’t land of free at all
5:43 wrong chinese flag for the time lads
This is the great America they wanted
If you believe in a free palestine, don't support Nebula
I love deportations, we need more, and they need to happen faster.
OBAMA DEPORTED MORE PEOPLE THAN ANY OTHER PRESIDENT N HISTORY. But we don't want people to know that, do we.
