In the 1970s, whites mobilized around a new version of the epic tale of plucky immigrants in the New World. Although this turn to ethnicity was for many an individual search for familial and psychological identity, Jacobson establishes a broader white social and political consensus responding to the political language of the Civil Rights movement.
