Against Chinese:
“The Chinaman degrades white Labor…California must be all American or all Chinese. We are resolved that it shall be American, and are prepared to make it so. May we not rely upon your sympathy and assistance?”
– Dennis Kearney, “The Chinese Invasion. Workingmen’s Address.” 1878

yes, america is pretty much always at war. that is why i find it so strange when people are surprised that we are at war. or when people say things like, ‘this is not the america i know’. then clearly you don’t know america. also with the police shootings and this perceived rise in racism. i’ve had people literally say america is more racist then it has ever been.
