[1969b] (17) Our Colonial Ancestors. STATING THE ISSUE. We are a nation of immigrants. The Indians whom the first white settlers found here had originally emigrated from Asia across the Bering Straits. In the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, 35 million Europeans crossed the Atlantic to our shores while thousands of Chinese, Japanese, and other Asians entered our western ports.

[1972]   (246) This new wave of immigration began about 1890 and lasted for thirty years. People still came to America from Northern and Western Europe, but now they also came from other countries. And they came in greater numbers than ever before. They came from countries like Italy, Greece, Austria, Hungary, Poland, Armenia, and Russia. And thousands of Japanese crossed the Pacific to settle in California.

[1986f]  (369) After 1890 Japanese immigrants also began coming to America. They settled on the West Coast and in Hawaii. (500) After the war, many other Americans were ashamed of what had happened to the Japanese Americans. The old immigration laws were ended. Hawaii was admitted as the 50th state in 1959. Over one-third of its people were of Chinese and Japanese origin.

[1987a]   

[1987b]

[1988]   (534) In 1910, Japanese immigration was also halted. About 130,000 Japanese had come to America by that time.

[1990a]   

[1990b]

[1990c] (483) Japanese immigrants did not arrive much before the end of the century. They came in smaller numbers, about 70,000 in all.

[1990d] (699) Because of population pressures on the limited land mass of Japan, as well as war and the quest for economic opportunities Japanese immigration to the United States dramatically increased around the turn of the century.

[1990e]   

[1991]   (459-60) As with China, the issue of immigration strained relations with the United States. After 1885 the Japanese emperor allowed citizens to leave the nation for Hawaii. Then, when the United States annexed Hawaii in 1898, many Japanese moved to the West Coast.

[1993a] (581) Japanese-American relations might have remained excellent had it not been for the problem of immigration. In 1900 Tokyo agreed to deny passports to emigrant laborers bound for the United States. But Japanese workers continued to make their way to the West Coast through Hawaii, Mexico, and Canada.

[1994b] (695) Because of population pressures on the limited land mass of Japan, as well as war and the quest for economic opportunities, Japanese immigration to the United States dramatically increased around the turn of the century.

[1994c] (455) In the 1880s, Japanese farmers began to replace Chinese workers in Hawaii's pineapple and sugar cane fields. Many Japanese saved enough money to travel to California and become successful farmers there.

[1996a] (577) Thus they acquired thousands of acres on which they produced sugar for export to the United States. In 1879 the total value of sugar estates in Hawaii was less than $10 million, but by 1898 the figure had jumped to over $40 million. Planters imported cheap laborers from China, Japan, the Philippines. Korea, and Puerto Rico to work the sugar cane fields. Soon Japanese immigrants alone made up a fourth of the population.  Native Hawaiians were rapidly becoming aminority on their own islands. (578) [Picture] Polynesians were culturally ill-suited to the backbreaking labor of sugar cane cultivation in Hawaii. English and American planters, who dominated the sugar plantations, instead recruited Japanese workers like this one. (943) The presence of other Asian Americans and an international atmosphere drew many Asians to New York City, but climate made Hawaii and California particularly popular destinations. Of more than 800,000 Korean Americans about a quarter lived around Los Angeles in 1990. So, too, the 1.4 million Japanese Americans settled primarily in California and Hawaii.

[1996b] (367) By 1910, arrivals from Mexico were beginning to outnumber arrivals from Ireland, and large numbers of Japanese had moved to the West Coast and Hawaii. (367) The United States had been the destination of immigrants from northern and western Europe since the 1840s, but after 1880 economic and demographic changes propelled a second massive wave of immigrants from other regions. Northern and western Europeans continued to arrive, but the new wave brought more people from eastern and southern Europe, plus smaller contingents from Canada, Mexico, and Japan.

(745) [Picture] Sugar was the key to Hawaii's English- and American-dominated plantations. Polynesians were culturally ill suited to the backbreaking labor sugar cultivation demanded, Planters filled their labor needs by recruiting Japanese workers like this one. (1201) The presence of other Asian Americans and an international atmosphere drew many Asians to New York City, but climate made Hawaii and California particularly popular destinations. In 1977 alone some 40,000 Filipinos migrated to Honolulu, many eager to escape from the corrupt regime of dictator Ferdinand Marcos. Of more than 800,000 Korean Americans, about a quarter lived around Los Angeles in 1990. So, too, the 1.4 million Japanese Americans settled primarily in California and Hawaii.

[1999c] (555) Significant numbers of Japanese immigrants began coming to the United States after 1890. From 1891 through 1907, nearly 150,000 arrived.
