The Washington Post Op Ed page just carried Trump's xenophobia is an American tradition — but it doesn't have to be| Some have always pushed to keep out immigrants, but people have always fought back, too, [by Erika Lee, November 26, 2019].
This Erika Lee [Email her| Tweet her], Director of the Immigration History Research Center, Regents Professor, Distinguished McKnight University Professor, and the Rudolph J. Vecoli Chair in Immigration History at the University of Minnesota, turns out to be, according to her Wikipedia entry (11/26/19), the "granddaughter of Chinese immigrants."
Her pinned tweet:
My family's history is the history of Chinese exclusion. #NeverAgain #NoBanNoWall pic.twitter.com/qp3UEoizYX— Erika Lee (@prof_erikalee) January 25, 2017
#Never Again? I've definitely heard that before.
To speak plainly: Lee's use of #NeverAgain in this context is a blood libel against white America. Excluding Chinese from immigrating to the U.S. in the 19th century was not remotely the same thing as Holocausting German Jews.
Additionally, Lee is being utterly hypocritical, given what I found when researching my 1995 (!!!) book Alien Nation: Common Sense About America's Immigration Disaster:
if you phone the embassy of the People's Republic of China in Washington, D.C., and ask about immigrating, you get this answer:Nevertheless, I am personally delighted that Erika Lee's WaPo piece included this:
CHINESE EMBASSY OFFICIAL [laughs]: "China does not accept any immigrants. We have a large enough population. A foreigner can visit on a tourist visa that can be extended for up to six months. Then you must leave. To apply for a temporary work permit, you must first have an official letter of invitation from a company authorized by the Chinese government" (p. 251).
By the 1990s, xenophobia became a central part of the growing conservative movement. Writers, scholars and politicians like Peter Brimelow, Samuel Huntington and Patrick Buchanan warned that growing numbers of immigrants from Latin America, Africa and Asia were not assimilating and constituted an assault against white America, which they argued, represented the core of American identity
• (Links added).Of course, none of us “argue” that "white America" is "the core of American identity"—we assert it, because it is a historical fact. Every single one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence, and of the delegates to the Constitutional Convention, was white (and, incidentally, overwhelmingly Protestant). As the famous scene from the 2006 movie The Good Shepherd (scripted, of course, by a Jew) puts it:
• "Xenophobia" = American nationalism.
• And, needless to say, I am proud to be in this company.
Joseph Palmi: "You know, we Italians have our families and the church, the Irish have the homeland, the Jews their tradition … What do you guys have?"
Edward Wilson: "The United States of America. The rest of you are just visiting."
"... The rest of you are just visiting."
Lee's Op Ed is stunningly stupid. She asserts: "Trump may be the most xenophobic American leader in United States history." But (apart from the fact that Trump has not, unfortunately, legislated to cut legal immigration, she does not mention that he has had two foreign-born wives. Perhaps this can be squared with "xenophobia"—but why doesn't Lee even try? (My guess: because they were both white).
