I stole the quote from the wiki article: Anti-Italianism This article was also pretty interesting: https://accenti.ca/jim-crow-and-italian-immigrants-in-the-american-west/ There’s also an interesting series of short US LIbrary of Congress sources for history classrooms on immigration that has a section on Italians too: https://www.loc.gov/classroom-materials/immigration/italian/under-attack/ I can’t vouch for the veracity of any of these since it’s not really my field but it’s interesting to see how how stuff like this has shifted over time and where the parallels to modern racism and xenophobia are.
