arrived from northern and western Europe  - worked as farmers  - First Wave of Immigrants

arrived from southern and eastern Europe  - worked as unskilled laborers  -

Second Wave of Immigrants

Explanation:

  • The colonial American society that is the cornerstone of America has created great waves of successful immigration to America from all over the world. However, public and political attitudes toward immigrants have always been contradictory.
  • The early immigrants to colonial America were mostly from England, Norway, France, Germany and other countries in northwestern Europe. In America, they sought, above all, an opportunity for a better life, and political and religious freedom.
  • The motive of their migration was riddled with greed and a desire for quick and easy wealth. Much to the chagrin of the indigenous indigenous peoples, the first colonizers killed whatever was in their way in order to get as quickly as possible fortune and leave the country alone. They kept the number of Indians to a minimum, and did not shy away from bringing in African slaves to increase profits and reduce labor costs.
  • Their descendants endeavored by all means to preserve the prestigious position afforded to them by their parents, displaying racial, religious and ethnic intolerance against the new waves of European immigrants coming from Italy, Poland, Russia and other Eastern European countries in the late 1800s. . A little later, their children showed great intolerance towards immigrants from South America, Asians, and African immigrants who began arriving during the second half of the 20th century.

How did Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Malcom X differ in their approaches to gaining civil rights?
morpeh [17]
Martin Luther King Jr. believed in peaceful protests. He led many non-violent organizations and protests, such as the March on Washington and the Montgomery Bus Boycott. He wanted everyone to be equal. Malcolm X, the head of the Nation of Islam, on the other hand believed that blacks were a superior being and that they didn't have to listen to what the white man said. He believed that they should show their superiority by any means possible even if that meant violence had to be used.
