Why Italians aren’t discriminated against in America anymore?

1.31K viewsOther

Italian Americans used to face a lot of discrimination but now Italian hate in America is virtually non existent. How did this happen? Is it possible for this change to happen for other marginalized groups?

Edit: You don’t need to state the obvious that they’re white and other minorities aren’t, we all have eyes. Also my definition of discrimination was referring to hate crime level discrimination, I know casual bigotry towards Italians still exists but that wasn’t what I was referring to.

Anyways thank you for all the insightful answers, I’m extremely happy my post sparked a lot of discussion and interesting perspectives

I wouldn’t say it’s non existent – where I live Guinea tee/wife beater and guido are terms that are still very popular.
