The nativist movement in the early 1900s aimed to protect the interests and cultural identity of native-born Americans, often by opposing Immigration. Nativists believed that immigrants, particularly those from Southern and Eastern Europe, posed a threat to American jobs, values, and social cohesion. This movement sought to restrict immigration through legislation and promote the idea of American superiority over foreign cultures. Ultimately, it reflected broader anxieties about social change and the impacts of industrialization and urbanization.
