As discussed in Part I, the Supreme Court cases involving Chinese immigrants, which established the government's plenary power over immigration and the framework for America's future treatment of all immigrants, provides an informative parallel with which to understand the experiences of other immigrant and foreignized groups. Although this comment focuses on two cases, Chae Chan Ping and Fong Yue Ting, which address the treatment of Chinese immigrants in the United States, this general type of canonical critique can and should be exported to all historically marginalized and excluded groups in order to ensure the accuracy of their portrayal in the American national identity narrative.

Between 1790 and 1870, only White persons had the ability to naturalize. Naturalization privileges were extended to Blacks after 1870, but remained unavailable to non-White, non-Black immigrants, separating racial minorities eligible for citizenship into two classes: Blacks and other non-Whites.

Gotanda, supra note 39, at 1188. Kenneth L. Karst observes that [d]istrust and fear of persons with different cultural backgrounds usually finds expression in language emphasizing a conflict of values. In American history, however, the expressed concern for values has often provided the excuse-as well as the emotional fuel-for hostile action aimed at preserving interests that are mainly economic. Typically, people who are themselves on the margin of society and economy feel the most threatened by cultural outsiders and are the most likely to resort to intercultural violence... Chinese workers in nineteenth century California received their harshest treatment at the hands of white labor union members.

Karst observes that: [t]o call a group unassimilable implied that its people were not sufficiently similar to the old stock to adapt themselves to a society defined by the old stock's world view, and thus that they should be excluded from the American community... The irony is that the universalism... that full membership in America would be extended to all who would embrace the nation's ideals... was so easily twisted into racist nativism.

See Chang & Aoki, supra note 27, at 1409-10. Chang & Aoki discuss how the English-Only movement and restrictive immigration laws, such as California's Proposition 187, resemble the discriminatory alien land laws of the early 1900s, which prevented persons ineligible for citizenship from owning land. These laws were upheld as constitutional because they did not explicitly mention race, even though Asians were the only racial group that could not acquire citizenship.

In fact, state courts were establishing the racial status of Chinese immigrants in America as early as 1854. In People v. Hall, 4 Cal. 399 1854, the California Supreme Court established that the racial condition of the Chinese was as inferior as that of Blacks and Indians. Under an 1850 California statute which provided that no Black, or Mulatto person, or Indian shall be allowed to give evidence in favor of, or against a White man, the California Supreme Court held that Chinese testimony was inadmissible by extending Indian to include Chinese and other Asians, and alternatively expanding the definition of Black to denote any non-White, thus encompassing the Chinese

In fact, state courts were establishing the racial status of Chinese immigrants in America as early as 1854. In People v. Hall, 4 Cal. 399 (1854), the California Supreme Court established that the racial condition of the Chinese was as inferior as that of Blacks and Indians. Under an 1850 California statute which provided that "no Black, or Mulatto person, or Indian shall be allowed to give evidence in favor of, or against a White man," the California Supreme Court held that Chinese testimony was inadmissible by extending "Indian" to include Chinese and other Asians, and alternatively expanding the definition of "Black" to denote any non-White, thus encompassing the Chinese.

Hall, 4 Cal. at 399. The Hall court particularly emphasized the foreign nature of the Chinese, which distinguished them from both White and Black Americans: The anomalous spectacle of a distinct people, living in our community, recognizing no laws of this State, except through necessity, bringing with them their prejudices and national feuds, in which they indulge in open violation of law; whose mendacity is proverbial; a race of people whom nature has marked as inferior, and who are incapable of progress or intellectual development beyond a certain point, as their history has shown; differing in language, opinions, color, and physical conformation; between whom and ourselves nature has placed an impassable difference.

U.S. 483 1954, Although Justice Harlan's dissent in Plessy is often cited as the first articulation of color-blind constitutional interpretation, Harlan strongly opposed extending the same recognition to the Chinese. His dissent reflected the view that Chinese immigrants' racial and cultural differences precluded them from becoming citizens through birthright or naturalization: There is a race so different from our own that we do not permit those belonging to it to become citizens of the United States. Persons belonging to it are, with few exceptions, absolutely excluded from our country. I allude to the Chinese race.

Kenneth L. Karst notes that one lesson from Korematsu implicates the relationship between empathy and judicial defense of the Constitution . . . The invasion of constitutional rights is least likely to encounter judicial resistance when the judges, like the politicians, perceive the victims to be markedly different from themselves. Even a Justice can be blinded by the abstract image of the inscrutable Other. KARST, supra note 44, at 91.

Leonard Dinnerstein proposes that the Framers failed to define national citizenship because: they saw little reason to restrict the relatively small number of Europeans who arrived periodically and contributed [sic] the nation's wealth. Moreover, they could not imagine that in a land as large as the United States immigration would ever constitute a problem or a source of concern. The young republic needed to bring people in, not keep them out. Dinnerstein, supra note 24, at 1. Ming-sung Kuo observes that the nature of the American nation was unclear at the founding, because the concurrent establishment of thirteen 'sovereign' colonies . . . complicated the constitutional allocation of sovereignty between the federal and state governments.

See Fontana, supra note 172, at 78 (From 1790 until 1952, federal law stipulated that a person basically had to be considered 'white' in order to be eligible for American citizenship. Were it not for the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1892 and the Immigration Act of 1924, for instance, many more Asian Americans would live in the United States today. These regulations explain why eighty-five percent of the American population in 1900 was white, and why it is projected that it will be about fifty percent non-white by the year 2050. This projected demographic figure might have been the reality in 1850, but for immigration regulation.) (citations omitted).

See Fontana, supra note 172, at 78 ("From 1790 until 1952, federal law stipulated that a person basically had to be considered 'white' in order to be eligible for American citizenship. Were it not for the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1892 and the Immigration Act of 1924, for instance, many more Asian Americans would live in the United States today. These regulations explain why eighty-five percent of the American population in 1900 was white, and why it is projected that it will be about fifty percent non-white by the year 2050. This projected demographic figure might have been the reality in 1850, but for immigration regulation.") (citations omitted).

Kevin R. Johnson and Bill Ong Hing point out that [t]he nation had a more coherent national identity in a time when minorities were subordinated in an era of Jim Crow and other unforgiving assimilationist measures. Johnson & Hing, supra note 31, at 1362-63. Additionally, the century of anti-Asian immigration laws, domestic laws, and violence may well have facilitated a cohesive national identity.

Fran Ansley recounts how, in her second year of law school, she realized the impact of Reconstruction and the Fourteenth Amendment on the Constitution in a course called Con Law II: I found myself worrying about the students who did not take Con Law II. Would they somehow, through some other route, learn this inspiring and thought-provoking fact about the amendment's genesis? It seemed important to me that they should. Ansley, supra note 85, at 239.
