In your opinion, what makes a society worth celebrating? I'm to lazy to come up with sum
myrzilka [38]
A society worth celebrating would be one where there aren’t toxic standards. A society where there isn’t racism, homophobia etc and people wouldn’t be judged for just being who they are. A society where the people actually work together as a community and help each other instead of manipulating each other for personal gain

Consider this statement: The immigration from 1901 to 1910 had a greater effect on the United States than the immigration from 2
Andrej [43]

<u>The immigration from 1901 to 1910 had a greater effect on the United States than the immigration from 2001–2010. Why might this statement be true?</u>

  • After their respective countries had faced many changes and economic instability, about <u>15 million Europeans</u> immigrated to the United States between 1901 and 1910, a number that doesn't even compare with previous decades. The effect was greater because many people were escaping from prosecution, seeking better land or for better job opportunities and wages, which weren't always obtained.

<u>What caused the large drop from 1930–1950?</u>

  • The <u>large drop </u>from 1930-1950 was caused by the increasing policies, such as the Immigration Act of 1924, that were limiting the immigrants entering the US (especially Southern and Eastern Europe) and banning Asian immigrants, due to factors such as the belief of maintaining the American population homogenous, the stock market crashed which started the Great Depression, as well as the WWII, which was fast approaching.  

<u>Approximately how many immigrants came to the United States between 1890 and 1920?</u>

  • As the United States' economy was increasing and stabilizing, it welcomed about <u>20 million immigrants</u>.
