Catholic immigrants to the us in the late 1800s and early 1900s were 1. often accused of being nativist 2. persecuted, attacked, and eventually driven into utah 3. often accused of being more loyal to the pope than to america 4. quickly accepted by non-catholic americans

The correct answer is number 2. Persecuted, attacked, and eventually driven into Utah.

Catholic immigrants to the US in the late 1800s and early 1900s were persecuted, attacked, and eventually driven into Utah.

One million of Catholics immigrated to the U. S. in the late 1800s and early 1900s. The consequence of this was a negative reaction from many Native Protestants, in what was called “Nativism.”

“Nativism” was a violent anti-Catholic and anti-immigrant movement that wanted to reduce the number of immigrants entering the U.S. Native protestants were afraid of immigrants, particurarly the Catholics, because they thought they were “invading” country and were taking jobs that belonged to U.S. workers.
