Does pride in one's country still have a place in the modern world?

Pride in one's country will never go out of style. But you should remember what the pride is in. 1) Do you believe in the founding principles of your country? 2) Do you believe your country's principles are good for all people? 3) Do you believe in your country making or had made the world a better place? You see pride in your country is not in the ruler's but in the principles of the country. Example: German's were/are a very proud people, but most of them hated what fascism (Hitler and the Nazi's) brought to their country. I hope this helps to answer your question

Why did nativists resent immigrants?

Like most countries, the United States alternated between welcoming newcomers and wishing they would stay away. Some American nativists, especially in the early to mid-1800s, wanted only those who were descendants of the original colonists to live in the US. They questioned whether immigrants with no ties to America would be loyal to this country, and they feared that immigrants would secretly remain loyal to the old country. Other nativists disliked people from the "wrong" religion-- Catholics and Jews, for example, and later they did not want people from the "wrong" race-- Asians, free blacks from the Caribbean, etc. Thus, the main reasons that nativists opposed immigration were fear of those who were different, and later, concern that immigrants might take away their jobs.

What did immigrants do to disprove the accusations made by nativists?

They tried to earn respect by working hard and living by the rules.... In a sense it was what the immigrants to the US *did* not do that showed that the nativists fears were unfounded. There was never a concerted effort by outside groups to change US society by flooding the country with adherents to foreign cause. Almost all immigrants came to the US motivated by either a desire to flee poverty or persecution or by a desire to take advantage of the economic opportunities in the US.

This is a controversial issue. Some people, and certainly the government, seem to believe they should be allowed to stay.

Some believe they should be granted amnesty and others disagree.

What group believed that only long ago immigrants from Western Europe could become real Americans?

Nativists held this belief around the turn of the 19th century. Around the beginning of the 20th century, immigrants started to come to America from Eastern Europe as they attempted to flee the tyranny and conflict that would eventually become World War I. Americans did not always like all these new people coming into the country, and nativists believed that they were tainting America and could never truly be part of it.
