Men of many different races are itg citizens, and have made it great among the nations. Columbus, an Italian, with four Jews in his ship's company, discovered this western world.

In course of time they abused their power. They loaded the struggling colonists with unjust taxes, and oppressed them in countless ways. In the end, the colonists rose in revolt, and fought together for their liberty. Their victorious army was composed of soldiers of many different races; Jewish blood was shed on every battlefield; Haym Solomon, a Jew, gave his whole princely fortune to the cause of liberty. And when England called home her defeated battalions in 1781, our ancestors, united in victory, formed the union of a new nation. In the early days of the Republic immigrants still kept coming, and helped build up the nation to power. But progress was so slow and the country so vast that when sixty years ago immigration began on a vaster scale, the greater part of the land was still uninhabited. In 1850 it was the Germans and Irish who crowded to our welcoming shores in great numbers. They soon became friends and Americans, and in 1861 again proved human brotherhood, for...

Challenges the myth of the United States as a nation of immigrants by bringing together two groups rarely read together: Native Americans and Eastern European immigrants In this cultural history of Americanization during the Progressive Era, Cristina Stanciu argues that new immigrants and Native Americans shaped the intellectual and cultural debates over inclusion and exclusion, challenging ideas of national belonging, citizenship, and literary and cultural production. Deeply grounded in a wide-ranging archive of Indigenous and new immigrant writing and visual culture--including congressional acts, testimonies, news reports, cartoons, poetry, fiction, and silent film--this book brings together voices of Native and immigrant America. Stanciu shows that, although Native Americans and new immigrants faced different legal and cultural obstacles to citizenship, the challenges they faced and their resistance to assimilation and Americanization often ran along parallel paths. Both struggled against idealized models of American citizenship that dominated public spaces. Both participated in government-sponsored Americanization efforts and worked to gain agency and sovereignty while negotiating naturalization. Rethinking popular understandings of Americanization, Stanciu argues that the new immigrants and Native Americans at the heart of this book expanded the narrow definitions of American identity.
