Later groups of immigrants, like the Italians, Polish, and the Jewish were treated very poorly when they came to the US in the 1900s. Many immigrants were funneled into urban ghettos, areas with poor living quarters resulting in high levels of death and disease. By the 1920s, the United States was reeling from its involvement in World War I and entered a period of isolationism. This was marked partly by a withdrawal from world affairs, but also a negative view on immigrants entering the country. In the early 1920s, the US passed the Immigration Quota Act which restricted the number of immigrants allowed to enter the country. President Warren G Harding's election based on a "return to normalcy" reflected the idea that Americans disliked immigrants who maintained cultural and linguistic ties to their homelands.

SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

Following WWII, the Cold War began and pitted the US against red Russia, which began to make Americans at home worry if there was communism growing among them. This led to the growth in popularity of McCarthyism and the suspicion and fear of communists and communist sympathizers; however, this quickly devolved into simple opposition to any agents of social and cultural change, which led to the disillusionment many had with America’s promise of fair and open democracy for decades.
