This is the first in a series of four episodes regarding America's toxic history with xenophobia. This first episode exams the discrimination that white Europeans experienced as they attempted to assimilate to their new nation's culture. Germans, Irish, and Italians receive special focus as each deals with the nativist backlash as they attempted to "prove" their whiteness. The rise of the Know Nothings and the creation of the pseudo-scientific eugenics movement serve as inspiration for the rising Nazi movement in Germany.
