Atlantic Migration
* Fill in the missing words into the blank fields
Historically, reasons for the migration of Asians to the United States were similar in some ways to those for the Atlantic of Europeans — to escape from poverty and civil war and to find employment opportunity and freedom. Chinese laborers were to build the transcontinental railroad in the mid-19th century and provide domestic services in cities such as San Francisco. They were followed by the Japanese and Filipinos in the early 20th century who labored in Hawaiian , California farms, and Alaskan canneries. Of these early Asian Americans, only the Japanese were to immigrate as families at the insistence of the Japanese government. For these early generations, Asians in America were largely communities of sojourners, with male to female ratios as high as 10 to 1. Asian-American children in those early years were rare.
