| Description | Angie explores Wisconsin's diverse ethnic heritage by investigating immigration to Wisconsin. Several phases of immigration are discussed, with attention given to "push/ pull" factors. Wisconsin's first phase of immigration in the early 1800s happened in part because territorial leaders were encouraging immigrants to settle here. Early state leaders continued to recruit settlers after statehood. Also, several groups of American Indians were pushed to Wisconsin from eastern states. The second phase (1890s-1920s) was influenced by the Industrial Revolution and poor immigrants seeking work in Wisconsin factories. The final phase of immigration (1940s-1990s) reflects a variety of push/pull factors for many cultural groups, including refugees forced from their homes by war. The difficult adjustments many immigrants had to make, while acknowledging the difficulty some residents had in adjusting to the newcomers is discussed. |
