Question

A) strikers
B) populists party
C) nativist
D) knights of labor

Answer 1

Nativist promotes the interests of natives before immigrants. Dindar wrote, "nativists... do not consider themselves as nativists. For them it is a negative term and they rather consider themselves as 'Patriots'"

Answer 2

I'm assuming this is dealing with U.S. history. The answer is C) nativist because it favors native inhabitants rather than immigrants.
