The First wave of Immigration to the U.S. were mostly White, Protestant Europeans from Germany and England. The second wave of Immigration to the U.S. consisted of immigrants fleeing Eastern European and Mediterranean countries because of either religious reasons or economic reasons, this group of immigrants faced discrimination in the U.S. The third wave of immigration to the U.S. mainly consists of immigrants from Latin America and Eastern Asia.
