EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photograph from 1844, a large crowd of Native American supporters, also known as the "Nativists," march through the streets of New York City. The Great Native Procession was a political demonstration aimed at promoting truly American ideals and values, while expressing strong opposition towards foreigners, particularly Catholics. The Nativist movement emerged in the United States during the mid-19th century, fueled by growing fears of immigration and the perceived threat it posed to American culture and values. The movement gained significant momentum in the 1830s and 1840s, with the arrival of large numbers of Irish and German immigrants, many of whom were Catholic. The Great Native Procession was one of the most prominent displays of Nativist sentiment in New York City. Thousands of people, many of them dressed in Native American costumes, gathered to express their support for American-born citizens and their values. The procession featured speeches, music, and parades, all designed to promote a sense of American identity and unity. However, the event was also marked by a strong anti-foreigner and anti-Catholic sentiment. The Nativists saw these groups as a threat to American society and believed that they were undermining American values. The procession featured banners and signs that denounced Catholicism and called for the exclusion of foreigners from the country. Despite the controversial nature of the event, the Great Native Procession was an important moment in American history. It reflected the complex and often contentious debates surrounding immigration and American identity in the mid-19th century. The photograph offers a glimpse into a pivotal moment in American history, and serves as a reminder of the ongoing debates and tensions surrounding immigration and American identity that continue to this day.
