Answer:

In the 1880s, Congress proposed the Chinese Exclusion Act, which  stopped Chinese immigration for a period.

Explanation:

The Chinese Exclusion Act was a law issued on May 6, 1882 in response to the massive immigration of Chinese people to the West Coast, mainly San Francisco. It was the first and only official law in US history directed against representatives of a particular nationality (the remaining discriminatory laws enacted in the United States concerned races in general). The law prohibited any Chinese immigration and / or naturalization of Chinese already residing in the United States (however, Chinese-born children in the United States were already considered US citizens). Initially, the law was supposed to extend to 10 years, but it was valid until 1943. By 1917, similar restrictions were extended to immigrants from Asia as a whole.

The trial of the Scottsboro Boys was one outstanding example of civil rights awareness during an otherwise bleak time of
Tasya [4]

Answer: False

Explanation:

The trial of the Scottsboro Boys serves as an example of a botched or ill performed trial, mainly due to the fact that those who were tried were black adolesents against a white jury, court and prosecutors. Though the trial was later proved to be ill conducted and the 9 teenagers pardoned when their innocence came to light, at the time extensive appeals and new trials were required to prevent them from being sentenced to death for the false acusation of raping two white women.
