What happened on Wednesday September 04, 1907?

About September 4th, 1907, in brief:

  • Historical events: On September 4, 1907, a violent anti-immigrant riot erupted in Bellingham, Washington, revealing deep-seated racial tensions and xenophobia of the early 20th century. A mob of approximately 500 white working-class men systematically attacked and forcibly expelled over 100 South Asian immigrant laborers, predominantly Sikh workers from Punjab, India. The rioters used physical violence and intimidation, dragging workers from their workplaces and homes, and herding them into the city jail's basement under the complicity of local law enforcement. This event was part of a broader pattern of racial discrimination and exclusionary policies targeting Asian immigrants in the Pacific Northwest during that era. The riots resulted in the complete displacement of the South Asian community from Bellingham, forcing them to flee the city and, in many cases, the United States, highlighting the brutal mechanisms of systemic racism and xenophobia.
