Answer:

The Quota Act of 1924 was designed to preserve the Anglo-Saxon, Protestant character of the United States.

Explanation:

The Immigration Act of 1924, also known as the Johnson-Reed Act, was a federal law passed on May 16, 1924 in the United States of America to limit immigration. This law was much more restrictive than the Emergency Quota Act of 1921 by banning entry to the entire Chinese population and extending restrictions to other Asian immigrant groups, and to a lesser extent , to people from Eastern and Southern Europe; on the other hand, it did not apply to persons originating from the American continent.

Answer:

C. There is no eternal truth, truth is created by history, and much of what we consider true is considered so because the world around us treats it that way.

Explanation:

Williams James, an American who was widely known for his philosophical and psychological works.

In his "Pragmatism's Conception of Truth", alludes to the idea that many of the things we hold to be truths are in fact only true-by-convention.

This implies that " there is no eternal truth, truth is created by history, and much of what we consider true is considered so because the world around us treats it that way."

This is evident when he claimed that "Truth, as any dictionary will tell you, is a property of certain of our ideas. It means their 'agreement', as falsity means their disagreement, with 'reality'."
