Some white Americans in both the South and the North were determined to dilute the African Americans dreams of becoming equal. Anti-Immigrants feelings also grew in the 1900’s. Laws established immigrant quotas to restrict the number of immigrants from Southern and Northern Europe. Outlawed the production and distribution of alcohol and it was intended to control the immigrant population. Bootleg liquor and speakeasies gave rise to crime. Prohibition was repealed in the early 1930s.
