The History of Racism in Immigration Law
Our modern immigration law is shaped by the fact that people wanted fewer Chinese people coming to the country in the late 1800s, pass laws. With very, very little pushback from the judicial branch.

Was cited in Hawaii as just another example of why the court should be loathed to interfere with immigration decisions.
