Final answer:

Nativism involves policies favoring established residents over new immigrants and discriminating against specific groups based on nationality and religion.


Explanation:

Nativism is exemplified by the policies that supported established residents over new immigrants, specifically aiming to prevent migration of nonwhites, non-Protestants, Jews, and immigrants from Europe. This discrimination extended to Native Americans who did not fit the vision of a white, Anglo-Saxon, and Protestant America. Examples include laws restricting immigration based on nationality, gender, and employment status, as well as the establishment of groups like the Asiatic Exclusion League targeting Asian immigrants.
