Americanization Movement• The Americanization movement was designed to
assimilate people of wide-ranging cultures into the dominant culture.
• Social etiquette classes were given as well as English to help immigrants learn the ways of native-born Americans.
• It encouraged recent immigrants to forget their own cultural traditions. Yet, many immigrants did not wish to abandon their traditions.
• Ethnic communities (like Santa Ana) provided much social support.
