Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Exclusion on various scales and in a variety of forms was central to the reimagining of the north Pacific coast as Euro-Canadian or American space, including restricting the entry of Japanese migrants at international borders, the denial of the of the full rights of citizenship to Japanese immigrants and Indigenous people, and barring access to certain kinds of occupations by law or in practice. On both sides of the Canada-US border, exclusion also sometimes took the form of overt expulsion. This chapter examines instances where Japanese and Chinese labor migrants and settlers were driven out of towns in British Columbia, Alaska, and the Yukon, arguing that the use of mob violence was integral to the reimagining of this region as “white”. Like government-sanctioned forms of exclusion, the expulsion of Japanese migrants mirrored efforts to erase the presence of Indigenous people, including the Taku River Tlingit near Atlin, B.C., from the colonial landscape in both countries. During the early decades of the twentieth century, the governments of both Canada and the US repeatedly worked together to ensure that the race-based barriers each erected against Japanese immigration and the acknowledgment of Indigenous rights reinforced those of the other.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
