Also known as the "Romero Report", this publication articulates the anti-Chinese sentiment in Mexico in the early 20th century. Romero's report concludes that Chinese immigrants, unlike their European counterparts, do not benefit the overall Mexican economy and are unable to properly assimilate. The publication of this report closely followed the Torreón Massacre (13-15 May 1911) in which over 300 Chinese men, women and children were brutally murdered and their homes and businesses burned. Romero cites this event as further evidence that Chinese populations in Mexico pose a threat to national stability.
