Anti-Catholic, anti-radical, and Anglo-Saxon patterns predated later nativist surges

Evidence

Nevertheless some of the major ideological outlines of American nativism had been established. The anti-Catholic, anti-radical, and Anglo-Saxon traditions had opened channels through which a large part of the xenophobia of the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries would flow. The content and dynamics of that later story would come from social, economic, and intellectual changes unimagined in the days of the Know-Nothings. But the basic patterns were there. — John Higham, Strangers in the Land, 72
