When people from India first started arriving in the US, in areas that were prejudicial at one time, they were freely accepted. As a teen, one of them was my family's physician, and his wife was a pediatrician. He went on to head the push to make our local college the third medical school in Kentucky, and succeeded. That created a huge expansion at the local hospital, and it employed many.
We knew, then, that people from what we called the East Indies were treated kindly in the UK, and they were in the US as well. The same occurred with those from Asia, where I became friends with a surgeon from South Korea.
The idea that racism, bigotry, and prejudice are still ongoing, and is everywhere, is one huge lie.
