Filipino immigrants faced special harassment in California during the 1920s and 1930s. In Carlos Bulosans book America Is In the Heart, it chronicles a period betwen 1907 to 1926 when 150,000 Filipinos immigrated to the United States to find employment, with a majority of the group landing in Hawaii and California. The Filipinos in California were mostly young unmarried men with little education and few skills, and they hoped to stay for a little while in America, make money, then return home to the Philippines. Filipinos of this time faced harassment from white Americans because they were not as averse as other minorities to date and that they marry white women. Documents organizations like Native Sons of the Golden West, the Commonwealth Club and prominent figures like former president of the University of California Dr. David P. Barrows testifying before Congress of the threat of Filipino men mixing with white women. In Watsonville, California, in 1930, four hundred white men attacked a Filipino dance hall where Filipino men danced with white women and many Filipinos were beaten and one was shot to death. In 1930 a white man testified before the House Committee on Immigration and Naturalization, The Filipinos are a social menace as they will not leave our white girls alone and frequently intermarry As a result of all this white pressure, thirteen states prohibited marriages between whites and Filipinos.
now in a modern world we live in… 25% of filipino men have been married to a different race.(white,black,hispanic,indian,) & 75% of filipinos are married to filipinas while 45% of filipinas have married outside their race
