1871年洛杉磯華人大屠殺(Chinese massacre of 1871),是1871年10月24日發生在美國洛杉磯的針對華人的種族仇殺事件,這起騷亂發生在尼格羅人街,共有18名華人移民在這次屠殺中被暴徒殺害.
The Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 was the first significant law restricting immigration into the United States. President Chester A. Arthur vetoed the first version of the 1882 Chinese Exclusion Act, arguing that its twenty-year ban on Chinese immigrants to the United States violated the Burlingame Treaty, but he signed a second version, which included a ten-year ban.
Japanese internment camps were established during World War II by President Franklin Roosevelt through his Executive Order 9066. From 1942 to 1945, it was the policy of the U.S. government that people of Japanese descent would be interred in isolated camps. 
Chinese American Vincent Chin, 27, is beaten in the head with a baseball bat by two white autoworkers in Detroit on June 19, 1982.  Convicted of manslaughter in a plea deal, Ronald Ebens and Michael Nitz were sentenced to three years probation and a $3,000 fine with no jail time. The verdict lead to outrage and protests in the Asian American community. Kin Yee, the president of the Detroit Chinese Welfare Council, called the sentence "a license to kill for $3,000, provided you have a steady job or are a student and the victim is Chinese,'' https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/vincent-chin-is-murdered-detroit 
The 1992 Los Angeles riots, The Roof Koreans were spontaneous self-defense forces organized by the Korean community of Los Angeles, primarily centered in Koreatown, in response to violent and frequently racist attacks on their communities and businesses by primarily black looters and rioters during the Los Angeles Riots of 1992. Despite their best efforts, over 2,200 Korean-owned businesses were looted or burned to the ground during the riots. It is chilling to imagine how many would have suffered the same fate had the Koreans not been armed. Standing on the rooftops of Koreatown shops they and their families owned, clad not in body armor or tactical gear, but instead dressed like someone’s nerdy dad, often smoking cigarettes, but always on alert, the Roof Koreans provide a stirring example of how free Americans of all races can defend their own communities without relying upon outside help.  https://ammo.com/articles/roof-koreans-civilians-defended-koreatown-racist-violence-la-riots-1992
