The Irish came to America primarily due to the Great Famine in the mid-19th century, which caused widespread starvation and economic hardship in Ireland. The rise of nativism against the Irish can be attributed to their Catholic faith, which clashed with the predominantly Protestant American society, as well as economic competition for jobs.

This pattern of resistance is common throughout history as societies grapple with changes brought by immigration.
