Answer:

C. Chinese Exclusion Act

Explanation:

The Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 was a law enacted to exclude an entire ethnic group in the U.S: the Chinese people. The act prohibited Chinese skilled and unskilled laborers from immigrating to the United States. As a result, the number of Chinese immigrants in the United States significantly decreased and the Chinese population decreased by almost half in 40 years.

The exclusion was mainly prompted for years of racial hostility and for American stereotyping of the Chinese as degraded, exotic, dangerous, and competitors for jobs and wages.
