Immigration, Assimilation, and Politics (Lessons from Hoover Boot Camp) | Chap 2

Didn’t over 50% of Italians go back to Italy? Also assimilation of non voting >minorities< is to be expected. If we look at Robert ORourke letting Mariachi bands play etc, you’re not necessarily making the right predictions looking at the cultural evolution during eg the 50s.

If we look at Europe, when majority is no longer given, truly parallel societies emerge, with increasing separation over time.

You stated that early industrialists forged :places like Chicago..." to be Republican. What??? How did you manage to skip Arizona? This is one of the most pointless presentations I've seen. The history of assimilation in the U.S. was largely forces for decades. I honestly have zero takeaways from this.
