Describe the similarities and differences between the new american immigrants and protestant workers.

The similarities between Protestant workers and new American immigrants are that both come to the U.S. to better their conditions. One of the differences between Protestant workers and New American immigrants is that Protestant Workers came from another continent and had to cross an ocean to get here. Most of the New Immigrants are looking for work and many Protestant workers were escaping political or religious persecution.  

Explanation:

Many immigrants have moved for opportunity and jobs throughout this nation’s history, and this is something that all immigrants have in common. Most New American immigrants live in cities and most get here through family sponsorship. Not all protestant workers arrived in cities initially and because many were escaping political or religious persecution, they left their previous lives behind them deciding to build their culture and ideologies to adapt to their new country.  

Around the turn of the 20th century, America became the world’s largest industrial power and went from being predominantly rural to largely urban. New York and Chicago experienced massive growth. At the end of the 19th century, immigration gave us the first wave of colonization by English people, Spanish people, and other mostly protestant Europeans. There was a new wave with Scandinavians, French people, and especially the Irish. They had primarily been farmers in the motherland, but in America, they tended to stay in cities, like Boston and New York.  

The second largest wave of immigrants was made up of German speakers, including a number of liberals who left after the abortive revolutions of 1848. Most of the men began their working lives as low-wage unskilled laborers, but over time they came to have much more varied job opportunities. New immigrants are more likely than previous immigrants to be Jewish or Catholic.
