Proceedings of the Asiatic Exclusion League , September 1909

As is usual, I'll just deal with the most interesting bits of the proceedings.

Most of this particular proceedings was statistical data on Japanese immigration and emigration.

I think that this part is very interesting.

Not only did the league want to stop Japanese from owning land, but they also wanted whites to boycott anything owned by Japanese.

Stores that did people's laundry were very big things at that time, and the league was trying to stop people from patronizing laundry cleaning services run by Japanese.

The League worked on holistic hate; don't allow Japanese to immigrant, don't allow them to own land, don't hire them, and don't shop at any businesses they run.
