Pacific Coast race riots of 1907
The Pacific Coast race riots were a series of riots that took place within the United States, as well as Vancouver, Canada. The riots were the result of anti-Asian tension, which resulted in violence against the increasing Asian population during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The riots took place in San Francisco, California; Bellingham, Washington; and Vancouver, Canada. Each city and anti-Asian activist group held its own unique reasoning for their specific riot.
== History ==

During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the United States was experiencing a wave of Asian immigration. As the Asian immigrants continued flooding into the United State, a growing number of citizens became concerned with the mounting numbers of Asian immigrants. United States citizens, and Canadian citizens, uneasy about the Asian immigrant’s ability to fill potentially white jobs within the United States. With the possibility of cheap labor, several employers were firing Caucasian workers, and replacing them with immigrants. “By () 1880 more than 100,000 Chinese were employed in a wide array of occupations, ranging from work on the railroads, in agriculture, and in mining, to work as domestics, in restaurants, and in laundries”.〔Gutiérrez, David. Walls and Mirrors: Mexican Americans, Mexican Immigrants, and the Politics of Ethnicity. Berkeley: University of California Press, (1995):43〕 Shortly after the Chinese immigration wave, Japanese citizens followed suit and migrated to the United States. By the late 1880s Japanese immigrant’s numbers were equivalent the number of Chinese immigrants 〔
As the 19th century came to a close, immigration continued to increase along with Nativism, the idea of preserving the current American social values.〔Daniels, Roger, and Otis L. Graham. Debating American Immigration, 1882-Present. Lanham, Md: Rowman & Littlefield Publishers, (2001): 3〕 Nativist viewed immigrants, that were not Caucasian or from select regions of Europe “un-American,” and therefore unable to assimilate into society.〔Daniels, Roger, and Otis L. Graham. Debating American Immigration, 1882-Present. Lanham, Md: Rowman & Littlefield Publishers, (2001): 13〕 If citizens were seen as unfit for society, they were considered a threat to the preservation of American values.〔 Nativist or not, many Canadian and American citizens used violent actions to force Asian immigrant out of jobs and certain cities “in the spring, summer and fall of 1907”(3), resulting in the race riots of 1907.
