The first big wave of Chinese immigration(移民)to America came when gold was discovered in California in 1848. The Chinese called the new land "Mountain of Gold". Those who did not become miners found work in railroad construction, farming and light industries, doing low-paid jobs. By the 1880s, American industrialization brought changing economic realities, resulting in an explosion of resentment, toward the Chinese laborer. He was accused of taking jobs away from the white man. The government issued Exclusion Acts(排外法案)to stop the immigration of Chinese laborers into the United States. Many workers fled from the concentrated Chinese communities in the West and scattered to the Mid-west and the East. As in California, they formed small pockets of Chinese culture that were known as " Chinatown".
New York’s Chinatown was created by men such as these sociologists(社会学家)call them "sojourners" —foreigners in the United States, clinging to their cultural traditions, living in isolation and resisting being absorbed into the larger society in which they existed. The sojourner came to America for the promise of supporting his family in China, where he expected to return one day. Those who did stay lived separately from the society—the Exclusion Acts did not allow laborers to bring their wives to America. So they remained in Chinatown, an enclosed community holding on to traditions amid the tides of change.
