NPOV

This page assumes that cultural competence - in particular, its segments regarding attitudes ("tolerance of") toward cultural differences - is necessarily a good thing. For instance, it terms disliking an aspect of another culture (just as one may dislike an aspect of one's own culture) to be "prejudice", a negative term.

British Fallacy

This page repeats the fallacy that immigration to America was "chiefly from the British Isles."

Prior to 1900 immigration to the United States from Germany exceeds that from England, and immigration from the British Commonwealth, including Canada, is less than that from the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

The English got to the States first, which is why they look predominant (and may have outbred the Germans) but they are not America's main source of immigrants.
