In the early 20th century, the United States faced challenges brought about by waves of immigration. Amidst these challenges emerged a figure who would make a significant impact on the nation's immigration policies – President Calvin Coolidge.
We here at VDARE.com are especially grateful to the thirtieth President for his having signed the 1924 Immigration Act.
The act established a quota system based on the nationality of immigrants and their countries of origin. The quotas were determined by the percentage of foreign-born individuals from each nationality residing in the U.S. as of the 1890 census. This meant that immigrants from countries with a significant population in the U.S. at that time were favored, while immigrants from countries with smaller populations in the U.S. faced more stringent restrictions.
If you consult Wikipedia, the federal law was designed to uphold “white supremacy.”
But Coolidge was no “white supremacist” bogeyman, despite what the woke writers at Wikipedia seem to think. He said it best himself during a State of the Union address on December 8th, 1925:
"We ought to have no prejudice against an alien because he is an alien. The standard which we apply to our inhabitants is that of manhood, not place of birth. Restrictive immigration is to a large degree for economic purposes. It is applied in order that we may not have a larger annual increment of good people within our borders that we can weave into our economic fabric in such a way as to supply their needs without undue injury to ourselves."
