Hmm…. I’d add the USA. We too were xenophobic in the 1930s, or racists to put it bluntly. Blacks could not eat or stay at certain places. Chinese were virtually excluded. Native Americans were refused the ability to learn their own language. The latest European group to immigrate was shunned.
Then they had something called the civil rights movement. We changed.
Granted, some conservatives are still xenophobic. They project their xenophobia on others, on how they see the world. They do not see the progress or want to see the progress.
The culture does not change totally or uniformly. Things shift slowly.
Still, if you are not rabidly conservative, you notice the change.

That this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth.
