Professor of history Gary Gerstle explains that Woodrow Wilson's views on immigrants and assimilation were very similar to those of Theodore Roosevelt. But while Roosevelt was very conflicted about minority rights, Wilson was much more set in his racial attitudes. "One of Wilson's first acts when he became president," Professor Gerstle says, "was to re-segregate Washington, to impose the Jim Crow doctrine, 'separate but equal,' on the city of Washington..."
