Nativism in the 1920s significantly influenced everyday life by fostering a climate of suspicion and hostility toward immigrants, particularly those from Southern and Eastern Europe. This social sentiment led to restrictive immigration laws, such as the Immigration Act of 1924, which aimed to preserve the racial and cultural status quo.
