So I am currently cataloging a book called:
"Meat vs. Rice: American Manhood against Asiatic Coolieism, Which Shall Survive?"
As printed by the Asiatic Exclusion League in 1908.
Apparently it is about how Chinese people eat rice and thus will be worse for the American standard of living than meat-eating Americans. Also, they're evil and cause evil. And doctors say they are bad for White people.
Regarding opium use: "And this soul-destroying vice may be traced directly to the presence of Asiatics among us...let us remove the cause and the disease may heal itself."
Regarding women: "The Chinese, with few exceptions, do not bring their wives and children to this country, therefore they prey upon American girls..."
Regarding Japanese: "It is undoubtedly the duty of the American government to bar out every Japanese, no matter what his standing..."
There are sections titled "Have Asiatics any morals?" and "Medical Testimony Regarding Asiatics" which includes medical testimony stating that 9/10ths of the diseases of young white men are contracted from Chinese women and that Chinese fill our hospitals with invalids.
Apparently Harvard's copy (a prior edition) has been digitized on Google books:

If the Chinese don't bring women to the US, then how are American men contracting diseases from them?
Also, what an excellent find. |
