The Sacco-Vanzetti case highlighted a growing sense of fear and anxiety over rising immigration in American society in the 1920s. The trial and subsequent execution of Italian immigrants Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti, who were accused of robbery and murder, became emblematic of the nativist sentiments and xenophobia of the time. Their case drew attention to the prejudices faced by immigrants and how these biases influenced the legal system and public perception, reflecting broader societal tensions related to immigration and national identity during that era.
