Albert Robbins was an editor, author, lawyer and lifelong advocate for civil liberties. Albert earned an M.A. from Temple University. He became executive editor of the ACLU Civil Liberties Review, publications director of the Educational Fund for Individual Rights, and managing editor of the National Law Journal. He joined the New York law firm of Cahill, Gordon, and Reindel, litigating First Amendment issues. He authored "Coming to America, Immigrants From Northern Europe" and co-authored "The Watergate File"; "Getting Angry Six Days a Week" and "Whistle-Blowing". He was a member of the Lawyers Committee for Human Rights, represented individuals seeking asylum in the US, and was secretary of the Committee on Immigration Law of the Association of the Bar of the City of New York. Considers the contributions of those who emigrated to America from Northern Europe, covering life in the Old World as well as the New World. Northern Europeans, like all immigrants, suffered from the prejudices of "nativists," Americans suspicious of any foreign influence. Nativism spawned the American Native Party, or "Know-Nothings," of the 1840s, the American Protective Association of 1887, and the immigration restriction societies at the turn of the century. When new waves of immigrants from other parts of Europe arrived, the nativists turned their attention away from Northern Europeans, but fears generated by this century's wars and radical political refugees have all inspired revivals of nativist tendencies. Despite resistance Northern Europeans have strengthened, enriched, and altered American life. They are no longer "foreigners" but an essential part of the American national character.
