Today, February 19th, is the 100-year anniversary of US v. Bhagat Singh Thind, which declared that no person of Indian origin could become a naturalized US citizen.

This Supreme Court decision was superseded 23 years later by the Luce-Celler Act, 1946, which allowed Indian and Filipino immigrants to become citizens.
