1922

The Cable Act of 1922 forbade Chinese men from marrying white women.

The Anti-Miscegenation Act of 1889 prohibited Chinese men from marrying white women. The Cable Act of 1922 terminated citizenship of white American women who married Asian men. These laws were not fully overturned until the 1950s.

1889年的“反異種通婚法”禁止華人娶白人女性。1922年的克博法案(Cable Act of 1922)的成立,讓白人女性若嫁漢家郎就會喪失公民權。參議院於2014516日正式為此法案道歉。
