Ch 18 Sec 4The New Immigrants • I can understand how the experience of immigrants was both positive and negative
Statistics • Between 1865 and 1915 – 25 million immigrants to U.S. • This is more than the U.S. population in 1850
Reasons • LAND Amount of European farmland shrinking while populations grew • RELIGIOUS FREEDOM Jews from Russia Christians from Turkey
Reasons • POLITICAL UNREST 1910 Mexican Revolution • JOBS U.S. companies recruited from overseas
Reasons • FREEDOM Drew people who wanted democracy and liberty
Immigrant Divisions Early 1800’s Late 1800’s From Southern or Eastern Europe Most Catholic or Jewish Few spoke English Little knowledge of democracy • Most from Northern and Western Europe • Most Protestant • Spoke English • Knew some democracy
A New Life • Difficult decision to leave • Miserable trip • Most took trip in steerage – large compartments that usually held cattle
Difficult Trip • Crowded conditions • Little ventilation • Sea sick • Easy to catch diseases
Ellis Island • Arrivals from Europe through Ellis Island • Physical examinations • Disabled or sick sent back
Where Did They Go • 2/3 stayed in cities Mulberry St. Little Italy
ASSIMILATION • Immigration Societies helped • Older people clung with traditions • Younger people adapted easily • Education
EDUCATION “The essence of American opportunity, the treasure that no thief can touch . . . Surer, safer than bread or butter.”
Naturalization • 5 year wait (unless joined military – then 1 year) • Speak English • Give up previous citizenship • Law abiding

Famous Immigrants • Alexander Graham Bell – Scotland • Samuel Goldwyn – Poland • Louis Mayer – Ukraine • Arturo Toscanini – Italy • Leo Baekeland - Belgium
Nativism • The policy of protecting the interests of native inhabitants against those of immigrants. • Political thought against immigrants BECAUSE
Nativism • Different languages • “ religions • “ customs • Immigrants are violent • “ are criminals • “ are anarchists WHAT DOES THIS SOUND LIKE?
Response • Chinese Exclusion Act – 1882 • Immigrants required to read and write – 1917 • Violence against immigrants • Discrimination
