To determine which of the options is the best evidence in support of the view that the United States is a nation of immigrants, we need to understand the significance of each option and analyze their connections to immigration in the United States.
A. Declaration of Independence: The Declaration of Independence, written in 1776, primarily focuses on principles of self-governance and the relationship between the American colonies and Great Britain. While it does not directly address immigration, it does not provide explicit evidence of the United States as a nation of immigrants.
B. Emma Lazarus' poem "The New Colossus": Emma Lazarus' poem "The New Colossus" was written in 1883 and is famously associated with the Statue of Liberty. The poem includes the well-known lines, "Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free." These lines emphasize the welcoming nature of the United States toward immigrants, suggesting that they should come seeking refuge and freedom. Therefore, this poem is a strong piece of evidence in support of the view that the United States is a nation of immigrants.
C. Bill of Rights: The Bill of Rights, consisting of the first ten amendments to the Constitution, focuses on protecting individual rights and liberties. While it is an essential document in American history, it does not directly address immigration or support the view of the United States as a nation of immigrants.
D. Chinese Exclusion Act: The Chinese Exclusion Act, passed in 1882, was a federal law that restricted immigration of Chinese laborers to the United States. This act aimed to limit Chinese immigration and reflected discriminatory attitudes prevalent at the time. As such, it does not provide evidence in support of the view that the United States is a nation of immigrants.
Considering the options provided, the best evidence in support of the view that the United States is a nation of immigrants would be B. Emma Lazarus' poem "The New Colossus."
And your answer is?
USA was built by whites. Our founding fathers never intended mass immigration by non-whites. USA used to be majority white and have very little "diversity" crime was lower than today. Quality of life was much higher; depression and mental illness was rare.
We were not a nation of immigrants. And once whites become the minority we won't be a nation anymore, it'll be South Africa all over again with whites being killed and the justification will be slavery even though slaves were sold by some African tribes themselves.
Jews run our institutions, government, education and media. Anti-white hatred is not a coincidence. Do your best on these tests but don't get brainwashed. There's a reason we only learn about the holocaust first priority and none of the other much worse genocides of history.
