Japanese people began immigrating to the United States in the mid-1800s. They mostly settled on the west coast. Almost immediately, there were racial tensions between white Americans and Japanese immigrants. Around the turn of the century in California, laws were passed that prevented Issei — Japanese immigrants born in Japan — from becoming US citizens or owning property. Later, laws made it illegal for Japanese immigrants to marry American citizens. Many people believed that Japanese immigrants were too different to assimilate into American society the way European immigrants had.
