USA: Land of immigration | bpb.de

How has the US changed as a nation of immigration over the centuries? This video shows different stages in the eventful history of immigration, such as the year 1619 when the first enslaved Africans arrived in Virginia, the racist Immigration Act of 1924, which regulated how many people from which nations were allowed to immigrate, or the changed political debate after 2000, which focused primarily on the issue of irregular immigration.
