Between1 1900 and 1917 8 million immigrants crossed1 the Atlantic1 to start a new life1 in America. In this new world1 it was said1 there was a chance for everyone1 to succeed1, to prosper1, to live the American Dream. But how far1 could America fulfil1 such expectations1? Was it really so easy to leave your old culture1 behind1? To discard1 your past like a set of old clothes1? America’s President, Woodrow Wilson, hoped so. For him, America wasn’t1 just some bolt-hole (refuge) from Europe1, it was a nation1 in its own right, with its own identity1 and culture1. But that culture was the culture of the old establishment1: white Anglo-Saxon protestant1, people like him1. And the new waves1 of immigrants, mostly from southern1 or eastern Europe struggled1 not to feel like outsiders1, struggled to be accepted1. It seems America wasn’t always as welcoming1 as people hoped1. And so the American melting-pot1 became a simmering stew. Different cultures1 keeping apart1 through pride, but also through1 self-protection.
