Dilemmas such as land shortages, religious persecution, crop failure, and unability of landing (a) job (s), increasing rate of taxes, and famine, caused many immigrants to settle in the U. S. because it was perceived as the land of economic opportunity. Especially in the urban areas, where immigrants could experience a new era of industrial change. (Second Industrial Revolution)

Answer: I think it was because, during that time there was no place the Africans Americans could go without people treating them badly. I the Northern states slavery was not a thing, so the african americans were free but they were not given the same rights as white people. Many did not want them to have rights because they thought that the african americans would change the government and outcome of elections. White people would make rules like the literary test to insure that african americans would not be able to vote.
