Nativists in the past have attempted to use pseudo-science to justify their beliefs in racial superiority and discrimination. They leaned on flawed concepts like eugenics and phrenology to support their views and promote policies aimed at restricting immigration and suppressing particular ethnic or racial groups. These misguided attempts to use science to justify discriminatory practices have been widely discredited and criticized by the scientific community.
Nativists attempted to use pseudo-scientific arguments to support their beliefs in the superiority of certain races and the inferiority of others, often citing misinterpreted or manipulated data from fields like anthropology and eugenics. They promoted ideas such as craniometry, which falsely correlated skull size with intelligence, to justify discriminatory practices and immigration restrictions. By cloaking their ideologies in a veneer of scientific legitimacy, nativists sought to legitimize their views and influence public policy against marginalized groups. This misuse of science aimed to reinforce social hierarchies and racial divisions.
Eugenics was used by nativists to promote the idea that certain races or ethnicities were superior to others, providing a scientific facade for their discriminatory beliefs. By advocating for selective breeding to improve the genetic quality of the population, eugenicists supported nativists in their goal of preserving a perceived dominant racial or ethnic group.
