Major Chinese Expulsion Sites in the West

 
 

Between 1850 and 1910 at least 153 incidents of mob and group violence against Chinese immigrants were known to have happened in fourteen states in the western U.S. The map below shows the major sites I have found in this first phase of the project. I will continue to add sites whenever I am able to document the specific locations where events occurred.
