"Labor unions discriminated against Chinese immigrants and did not allow them to join."
Explanation: In the late 1800s many U.S. labor organizations—especially on the West Coast—barred Chinese workers, blamed them for driving down wages and for working as strikebreakers, and supported exclusionary policies (e.g., backing the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882). They generally did not help Chinese immigrants find work or form unions.
