To what extent did immigrants give up their heritage to become Americanized, or fully assimilated into the existing culture?

History

Aliun [14]3 years ago

Answer:

The immigration experience for different groups of immigrants is different and they assimilated to American society in different ways. There were also biases and prejudices on the part of mainstream society that were barriers for some populations.

Explanation:

The process of assimilating into American culture is complex. The early immigrants from Northern Europe who arrived in colonial times or shortly thereafter had an easier assimilation process as they were more like the settlers culturally and historically although some Scandinavian and German cultural influences remained among families and in particular regions. There was also a large population who immigrated from Ireland around time from the 1820s to 1860s. In the mid to late 1800s there were waves of immigration from Southern and Eastern Europe and they were linguistically and culturally more distinct and so they also created enclaves in many of the the largest cities that allowed them to keep some of their heritage. Generally by the second generation immigrant children adopt many of the traits of the dominant culture and they are bilingual in many cases but can speak English like anyone born American.  The Chinese for example were discriminated against and excluded with the Chinese Exclusion Act in 1882. It was harder for them to assimilate.

Why do you believe so many German’s ended up getting on board with the Nazi’s?
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

I believe that since Germany had just lost World War 1 they had to pay off all their debts, leaving them in an economic depression. Therefore, when Hitler began to speak and present himself infront of people, they saw him as a strong power of hope. He was the only one who brought gave hope to turn their economy around in such a depressing time. As a result, most Germans just wanted their lives, jos, money, and family to turn back to normal. They we're blind-sighted by what Hitler actually meant he was doing. They supported the Nazi's because Hitler blamed the Jews for why their economy was at such a low point. Most Germans believed what Hitler said and wanted to get back at the Jews for what they alledegly did. Hitler made the Germans live in fear of "what the Jews were doing".
