The violence of the 1948 Nakba didn\u2019t stop. In fact, successive Israeli governments, with the financial and political backing of the US, have given Israel the green light to expand and entrench its colonial project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Colonialism is alive and well in the 21st century. The Nakba is not a thing of the past, but an ongoing reality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About the speakers:<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Sandra Tamari&nbsp;<\/strong>is a Palestinian organizer and the Executive Director of Adalah Justice Project (AJP).

(Facebook page)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Signed into law on May 6, 1882, the Chinese Exclusion Act was one of many discriminatory laws enacted by the U.S. government, and banned immigration from China to the U.S. An emblem of the racist period known as the &#8220;Yellow Peril,&#8221; the law was supported by many prominent San Francisco business leaders. Levi Strauss later condemned the Act, but its passage had long-lasting impacts on the early Chinese community in the U.S. In this talk, take a deeper look at an often-overlooked story with educator Sharon Lee-Nakayama, who will chart the chronology of the Exclusion Acts, the history behind them, and their effects on the early Chinese community in the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This talk is presented in partnership with the San Francisco Chinese Historical Society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Host: Comtemporary Jewish Museum<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Info:&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/events\/468929460894284\">(4) The Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 | Facebook<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>4.
