In the late nineteenth century, a large population of immigrants and rapid growth of cities coincided with the deyelopment of political machines and laws such as the immigration acts of 1882, 1891, & 1903. think about your own time, have you seen a similar dynamic in modern american culture & politics? based on what you see in the media or on the news: how has american culture & politics responded to immigration in your lifetime?

Based on my observations, the American culture and politics responded to immigration negatively. The American culture portrayed the immigrants as criminals and dangerous people, when actually most immigrants just wanted a chance of getting a fresh start in their lives. However, the wall and the mistreatment of ICE and ignorant Americans is not helping them. Some of the American politicians are using the people's understandable fear of danger from other countries coming into America to gain power and influence to control America to their advantage.

Hope this helps!
