#AntiForeigner
“With the exception of the more refined and positive attitudes of the Middle Western Progressives of the early 20th century, pre-Franklin Roosevelt populism seemed, variously, antieverything - antielite, anti-intellectual, antiurban, antiforeigner, antiblack, anti- Catholic and anti-Jewish”

Refugees in South Africa fear new attacks as September 30 deadline looms
Durban, South Africa – Bishop Raphael Bahebwa is in hiding, afraid he could be attacked for speaking out for the rights of foreigners in South Africa. “I am in hiding now because they say they are going to kill me for speaking about the rights of foreigners,” he told Al Jazeera. Bahebwa has lived in South Africa for 26 years, after arriving as a refugee from the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). In that time, he has watched antiforeigner sentiment flare repeatedly in the country he came to call home. But he says this year feels different. A September 30 deadline declared by March and March, an anti-immigration movement that has led protests across South Africa this year, has renewed fears of violence among migrant communities. The group has called for undocumented foreign nationals to leave South Africa and has warned of further demonstrations if its demands are not met.

They say the hostility they experience on the streets rarely begins with a request to see their papers. Fears of renewed violence South Africa will hold local government elections on November...

Yeah -- two years ago maybe I taught this article, and it's good, but it's also true that it's very much not at all about what the refugees thought. It would be surprising if there weren't anthologies say of narratives from migrant workers/immigrants. www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/abs/10.1...

This pos wants to be just like the 1926 pos who whole-heartedly accepted the courting of the second wave KKK? Feeding on the antiforeigner and nationalist sentiment of the post war years, a KKK that promoted itself as a “100% American” organization. Sound familiar?
