At the end of the 1840s, gold was discovered in California, which caused a great movement of people who came with the hope of obtaining great economic benefits. Many immigrants arrived from China.
In 1873, the New York bank Jay Cooke and Company went bankrupt, causing a financial crisis that hit California economically.
In the 1880s, the estimated number of Chinese in California was 100,000.
In this climate of economic uncertainty, white workers blamed the Chinese for representing unfair competition, since they often accepted jobs for a low payment. The Chinese population began to suffer many acts of violence.
The Chinese exclusion act of 1882 suspended the immigration of Chinese for 10 years.

Grendel is presented in the <em>Beowulf </em>story as an embodiment of ungodly evil, and so in the defeat of Grendel by Beowulf can be seen as an allegory for the battle between good and evil and between Christianity (which was then taking root in England) and paganism.
<em>Beowulf </em>is an old, old story by an unknown Anglo-Saxon poet, written in Old English. It stems back to around 1000 AD. By that time, England had become largely Christianized, and so the cultural context of the epic poem would naturally include allusions to Christianity overcoming paganism. In the story, Grendel and his mother are called "descendants of Cain," a reference to the biblical figure of the first son of Adam and Eve, Cain, who became the world's first murderer and a figure associated with evil and chaos and abandonment of the true God. Beowulf can be seen as something of a "Savior" to defend what is right and good.
Frederick Klaeberg, in his analysis, <em>Beowulf and the Fight at Finnsburg </em>(1950), noted that we might recognize features of the Christian Savior, Jesus, in Beowulf, who is depicted as "the destroyer of hellish fiends, the warrior brave and gentle, blameless in thought and deed, the king that dies for his people."
