The Pacific Coast race riots were a series of riots that took place within the United States and Canada. The riots, which resulted in violence, were the result of anti-Asian tension caused by white opposition to the increasing Asian population during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The riots took place in San Francisco, California; Bellingham, Washington; and Vancouver, Canada. Each city and anti-Asian activist group held its own unique reasoning for their specific riot. The target of hatred in Bellingham was several hundred Sikh workers who had recently immigrated from India. (The locals mistakenly called them "Hindus.") Vancouver attacked Chinese. San Francisco attacked Japanese.
