Nativism is a political philosophy which believes in promoting the rights of the 'Americans citizens' first and immigrants later.

The idea grew early in the founding years of America as the government opened by immigration. During the western Expansion of the United States, many workers from China and all across Europe settled in the new cities.

Many cities had significant Chinese populations living in small quarters called the 'China Town'.

These were basically ghettos of Chinese immigrants.

The nativists did not like them and considered these places to be 'too different' and not like the 'rest of the city'.
