What statement describes a result xenphobia in the 1920s?

Answer 1

Xenophobia in the 1920s in the United States led to a rise in nativist sentiments, resulting in restrictive Immigration laws such as the Immigration Act of 1924, which favored Northern and Western Europeans while severely limiting immigrants from Southern and Eastern Europe, as well as other regions. This era also saw the resurgence of the Ku Klux Klan, which targeted not only African Americans but also immigrants and Catholics, reflecting widespread societal fears and prejudices against those perceived as "foreign." Such xenophobic attitudes contributed to a climate of intolerance and discrimination that shaped American social and political landscapes during the decade.
