While the magma was rising up and out of the volcano it hit a huge patch of frozen water making the water expand. Therefor the volcano blew out sideways and caused huge flooding. The flooding was mixed with ash, a lot of water and the things of the surrounding area. When the volcano erupted the ash and rock from deep within the volcano had been sprung into the air at around 400 mph. The rocks and debris rose 15 miles into the air.

During the 1800s and early 1900s various ethnic groups were restricted from immigrating. Mainly asian (and specifically chinese) people were discriminated against.

Immigration of chinese laborers was prohibited right then. This was largely the result of racial prejudice from the American people and their authorities.
