What’s the difference? AMERICA

Immigration Upon their arrival, immigrants began the process of assimilation This was called the American “melting pot” Immigrants often settled into ethnic neighborhoods in cities Immigrant families worked hard to learn English, adopt American customs and become American citizens Public schools played an important role in assimilating immigrants into American society

Immigration Contributions of immigrants: Chinese workers helped build Transcontinental Railroad Eastern Europeans worked in textile and steel mills in the Northeast and the clothing industry in NYC Slavs, Italians, Polish worked in coal mines in the East All worked at great personal risk in dangerous conditions and for very low wages

Immigration At your table answer the following question: “How do you think native-born Americans reacted to the increase of immigrants coming to the United States? Why did they react that way? What reasons did they have?” Brainstorm as many ideas and reasons as you can think of

Immigration Despite their hard work and contributions, immigrants often faced discrimination and hostility Fear and resentment that immigrant workers would take jobs for lower pay than Americans Prejudice based on cultural and religious differences Nativism= prejudice against the “wrong groups” coming to America Increasing pressure led Congress to limit immigration through new laws

Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882: -Ban on all immigration from China (except for students, teachers, merchants, and tourists) -Barred Chinese immigrants from U.S. citizenship - Not repealed until 1943 Immigration Restriction Act of 1921: -Set up a quota system limiting who and how many immigrants could come to the U.S. - Aimed at people from Eastern Europe.
