Through the historical archives of the anti-Filipino white supremacist movements of the 1920s and 1930s, this article examines how activities (or nonactivities)—such as sleeping, lingering, cruising, or idling—unsettled structures of racial capitalist, heteropatriarchal, and colonial power. The time of rest, for Filipino diasporic transients, caused panic, not necessarily because it was a reparative means for reproducing labor power and increasing profits. Instead, Filipino rest—and perhaps all forms of diasporic transient rest under rapidly industrializing capitalism—was deemed dangerous because it could engender wayward relations that flourished during the time of rest
