I love this article, because we have to remind people that Americans have been afraid of Italians and Germans and Swedes and Jews and the Japanese and Muslims and the Chinese and DEFINITELY the Irish at one time or another.
Established groups feared new groups. But in the end, these people generally brought new innovations and economic growth and interesting new foods.
They mashed new cultures with old - not without pain - and eventually gave us General Tso's Chicken.
In other words, it's gonna be alright.
^^ this is what I tell people who support Muslim bans. I'm not sure if it helps them, but it helps me.
