Asian Americans had been excluded from entering the U.S. for more than half a century through the litany of anti-Asian immigration legislation passed in the years (1882, 1917, 1924, 1934) leading up to WWII. How did the 1965 Immigration Act (Hart-Celler Act) change this situation? Why have so many well-educated Asians immigrated into the U.S. after the passage of this Act? To what extent will Asian immigrants continue to enter the U.S. in the 21st century? Drawing upon evidences presented in this week’s reading (chapter 3), make a case that Asian immigrants will continue to come in a steady pace to the U.S., or slow down significantly, or halt altogether.
I will also attach the Chapter three reading so you can reference upon it.
