Market Street Chinatown Archaeology Project San Jose Newspaper Articles March 1886 Since 2012, the Market Street Chinatown Archaeology Project has worked with historian Bonnie Montgomery to identify historical sources about the Market Street Chinatown and about Chinese immigrants and Chinese Americans living in Santa Clara County. Ms. Montgomery has systematically reviewed newspapers from 19th century San Jose and collected and transcribed articles that report on events related to Santa Clara County Chinese individuals and communities, along with editorials, wire service reports, and articles that were intended to influence the readers’ perception of Chinese communities. The resulting files, organized by month and presented in .pdf format and .csv spreadsheets, provide a rich source of documentary evidence about journalists’ perceptions of historic Chinese communities and of the public debates about Chinese immigration at the time. The files include the full text of the newspaper article, along with the date of publication, name of the newspaper, type of article, byline or wire service credit, and number of words. San Jose, California, was one of the centers of the anti-Chinese movement in the U.S. west. The first state-wide anti-Chinese convention was held in San Jose in February 1886, and numerous anti-Chinese organizations were active throughout Santa Clara County. Some newspapers were deeply involved in the anti-Chinese movement, not only reporting on the activities of these organizations but also actively encouraging anti-Chinese policies and activism. Many of the newspaper records presented in these files contain racist descriptors and terminology we find offensive today, and that were also offensive to many people living in the 19th century. The views and language used are that of the original journalist. These materials are provided in order to facilitate direct access to primary historical documents for those interested in the history of Chinese communities in 19th century Santa Clara County. To the best of our knowledge, the materials presented here are in the public domain; however we cannot take responsibility for copyright clearance for your use of these materials. We would appreciate if any presentation or publication of these materials include the credit line, “Archival studies contributing to this work were conducted by historian Bonnie Montgomery.” The archival research presented here was supported in part by the Stanford University UPS Endowment Fund, under the directorship of Market Street Chinatown Archaeology Project principal investigator Barbara Voss.

Portland, Or., March 1.—Between midnight and 2 o’clock this morning one hundred and eighty Chinese working as woodchoppers and grubbers from one to three miles back of Albina, the northeastern suburb of this city, were riven away from their camps, marched to the ferry landing and ferried across to this city. A crowd of eighty whites, most of them masked, divided into squads of twenty each, visited the camps and ordered the Chinese to leave, which order they obeyed without resistance.” 3/1/1886 Evening Herald (staff) page 3 column 4 (News) “White Brickmakers. W. P. Dougherty, proprietor of the brickyards on the South Pacific Coast Railroad between San Jose and Los Gatos, has had an agent in the East for some time past securing white brickmakers, and about a hundred have already been secured and will soon be on their way hither. Many of them have families. The last Chinese were discharged from the brickyards last October, when the brickmaking season closed. The season will open again next month, and no Chinese whatever will be employed. Mr. Dougherty had found a dearth of white brickmakers in the State, and determined not to be baffled he sent an agent East, with the result as stated. The most interesting feature of the matter, and one that shows Mr. Dougherty’s earnestness in its best light, is that he will bear the entire expense of bringing men and their families to San Jose. In order to accommodate the business to white hands he has also ordered a large amount of moulds and other appliances which cost him $10,000.” 3/1/1886 Evening Herald (Boston Shoe Bazar) page 4 column 3 (Advertisement) “WE ARE BOOMING! ¶ And Please Don’t Forget It. ¶ The Boston Shoe Bazar! ¶ BOOMS ¶ When competitors are quiet.

D. M. Delmas, who has important interests here. Hence Mr. Delmas will be instructed to attend the adjourned session of the State Convention as a representative of Mountain View interests. ¶ Mr. Chas.

The committee, which was composed of J. Wolf, Cal Dewing and J. D. Condon, made a report, which, after specifying the menace to working men caused by Chinese and convict labor, provides for an organization to be known as ‘The Bureau of Industry of the Pacific Coast.’ Its functions shall be vested in an executive board, which shall consist of one member from each local assembly of Knights of Labor and all the officers of District Assembly, No. 53. ¶ The duties of the Executive Board shall be the appointment of a secretary to collect all information concerning the organization, or relating to its objects, and the opening of an employment office in San Francisco for the purpose of furnishing laborers with employment free of cost, in all branches of industry wherever required. ¶ The committee then call upon the Chinese Six Companies to ship the Chinese on this coast to their homes as fast as the means of transportation will allow; they demand that the sanitary laws be enforced in the Chinese quarter; call the attention of the State authorities to the fact that the convicts in the State prisons in San Quentin and Folsom are worked in direct violation of the law, and in conflict with a provision in the State Constitution, and demand of the State authorities that convicts be employed in accordance with the law.

Lynda Anne Moy From Yellow Peril to Model Minority: Deconstruction of the Model Minority Myth and Implications for the Invisibility of Asian American Mental Health Needs ABSTRACT The model minority myth is a racial stereotype imposed upon Asian Americans, often depicting them as a successful and high-achieving monolithic group in the United States. This paper examines sociopolitical functions of the term “model minority” and implications for this broad and diverse racial group by reviewing existing literature and conducting an analysis of qualitative interviews with 12 Asian Americans. The findings of this study suggest that while the model minority myth appears to be a positive stereotype, it may lead Asian Americans to experience distress through (a.) a sense of confinement, (b.) treatment as foreigners, and (c.) erasure and invisibility of challenges around identity, racism and discrimination, immigrant and refugee experiences, mental health, and accessing culturally sensitive resources.

In addition the Central Area‟s development was not part of a unified real state scheme with coordinated public improvements (such as the Mount Baker community). For these reasons, it has never had official boundaries and various writers describe its extent in various ways. Almost all attempts to describe the neighborhood include a core area bounded by Madison Street on the north, Jackson Street on the south, 15th Avenue on the west, and Martin Luther King, Jr. Way (formerly Empire Way) on the east. In 1975, Nyberg and Steinbrueck identified the eastern boundary of the Central Area as 30th Avenue (more or less), and also included extensions to the north and south of the core area. The extension to the south of Jackson Street was bounded by 30th Avenue (approximately) on the east, Interstate 90 on the south, and the mid-block alley just east of Rainier Avenue South on the west. The extension to the north of Madison Street was bounded on the west by 23rd Avenue, on the east by the Washington Park Arboretum, and extended north to a line just north of East Helen Street marking the boundary between the plats known as the Madison Park Addition and the Hazelwood Addition Supplemental.1 Walt Crowley describes the neighborhood as a “sprawling residential district .

    ABSTRACT Name: Timothy Dean Draper Department: History Title: "A Little Kingdom of Mixed Nationalities": Race, Ethnicity, and Class in a Western Urban Community—Rock Springs, Wyoming, 1869-1929 Major: History Degree: Doctor of Philosophy Approved by: Date: Dissertation Director NORTHERN ILLINOIS UNIVERSITY Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner. Further reproduction prohibited without permission. ABSTRACT In 1885, the mining settlement of Rock Springs, Wyoming, witnessed one of the worst episodes of ethnocentric violence in the urban West as Euroamerican miners massacred Chinese laborers and burned Chinatown to the ground. Less than four decades later, in 1926, inhabitants of Rock Springs, including immigrants and natives, Asian Americans and Euroamericans, came together at a time of heightened national ethnic tensions to celebrate the diversity of their municipal community in the first of four annual "International Night" festivals. This study explores the apparently dichotomous reality of Rock Springs from its establishment as a mining camp during the building of the Union Pacific Railroad in the late 1860s to the conclusion of the International Night movement in the mid- to late 1920s The focus of this dissertation centers upon the role of immigrants and their descendents in constructing diverse community networks and how they syncretized those varied networks into a unifying ethos of "municipal community," an identity expressed through their sense of ethno-racial boundaries, western heritage, inter-class cooperation, and negotiation with monopoly capitalism. By focusing on ethnicity, race, class, and region, I address how the inhabitants of Rock Springs negotiated the cultural and material challenges to construction of a community identity posed by a hegemonically inclined Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner.

Dedico este trabalho ao meu avô (na foto) e minha avó por serem fonte de inspiração para a elaboração deste trabalho. Minha trajetória no Brasil iniciou-se a partir deles. RESUMO Em 2020, a imigração japonesa no Brasil completou 112 anos. Embora haja uma troca cultural muito grande entre ambos os países, os japoneses e seus descendentes ainda são alvos de preconceitos a partir de estigmas e estereótipos. Assim, a questão norteadora é de que forma ocorrem as manifestações de hostilidade e preconceito para com os japoneses e seus descendentes? O objetivo geral é pautado na busca pelas manifestações mais comuns da discriminação. Dessa forma, propõe-se a análise da relação entre a hospitalidade e a acolhida ao estrangeiro, as origens históricas que levaram a criação de estigmas e generalizações e de que forma influenciaram no estabelecimento dos imigrantes no Brasil.
