History- Racism and Predjudice in 1920s America 

1920s America, in many ways, changed the course of history. However, 1920s America was a divided society, where African Americans and immigrants suffered discrimination, racism and prejudice. Most immigrants before 1890 were northern European, e.g UK and Germany. Many were well-educated, skilled workers. They thrived in the USA and held powerful positions in society by the 1920s. They were known as WASPs- White Anglo-Saxon Protestants. 

Between the 1890s and 1920, there was a huge increase in the number of immigrants moving to America from southern and eastern Europe, particularly Italy, Russia and Poland. Many Americans disapproved of these ' new' immigrants. 

• ' New ' immigrants were often poor, unskilled workers with little education, leading some Americans to believe they were unable to contribute to society 

• Some also believed that too much cheap labour would lead to competition for jobs and cause wages to fall. 

• There were fears that some were communists ( a political and economic system where the government or community owns and controls the means of production, land, and resources, to create a classless society where wealth is shared equally among everyone). These Xenophobic Views increased when the Red Scare got worse in 1919

• The Majority of Americans were protestant, ' new' immigrants were mainly Catholics and Jews. They held different cultural and religious beliefs from most of the USA. 

• Americans feared that immigration could completely change  their society and identity 

• Many employers exploited immigrants, meaning they could only afford housing in the poorest areas, often cramped, and dirty.
