The Mining Industry

Question 1 • OK-Oklahoma History

Immigrant enclaves changed the culture of Indian Territory’s mining towns. Which of these outcomes is not an example of how the enclaves affected foreign immigrants?

Answer
A
Enclaves helped immigrants continue to learn in their native languages.
B
Enclaves gave immigrants more chances to own their own businesses.
C
Enclaves forced immigrants to mix outside their own groups.
D
Enclaves gave immigrants opportunities to read in their old languages.

Explanation

Immigrant enclaves allowed people to live near others who shared their language and customs. They could support learning and reading in their native languages and establish businesses serving their communities. Enclaves generally made it easier to remain within familiar cultural groups, rather than forcing immigrants to mix outside those groups. So the outcome that is not an example is “Enclaves forced immigrants to mix outside their own groups.”
