How did fundamentalism and nativism affect society in the 1920s?

History

Fundamentalism and nativism had a significant affect on American society during the 1920's. Fundamentalism consists of the strict interpretation of the bible. This was especially relevant for those who were considered Christians. These fundamentalists used the bible to guide their actions throughout the 1920's. A perfect example of this would be the increased amount of charity work done by Christians to help the urban poor. Creating Sunday schools for children and providing shelter/food shows how they interpreted the importance of service based on the reading of the bible.

Nativism, on the other hand, focuses on the idea of "Americans first." Nativists greatly disliked immigrants, as they felt they were stealing job from native born Americans (hence the name, nativists). This caused a sense of fear and paranoia in American society. The first Red Scare and the court case of Sacco and Vanzetti are perfect examples of how "un-American" views caused American citizens to act irrationally towards people from other countries.

How did the confederacy’s strategy at the start of the civil war differ from the unions strategy
Otrada [13]

Answer:

The North wanted to cut off the flow of Southern commerce and  invade the major Southern cities to force a surrender. The South  wanted to prevent any early Northern success, and maintain its   defenses until public opinion in the North forced a negotiated end  to the war.   After the fall of Fort Sumter, President Lincoln ordered a naval blockade off the seceded states. The Union also wanted control over  the Mississippi river and to capture Richmond, Virginia, the   capital of the confederacy. It is only about 100 miles (160 km)  from Washington, DC.   The South planned a war of delay, to wear the enemy out physically and mentally until they gave up their invasion of the  South. Its limited resources made this problematic, and this   defense could not be maintained for very longer, especially since  their means of resupply (European trade, and resources from the  West) were under constant interdiction by Union forces.
