I learned in a history class that because Einstein was an immigrant none
of the US (white) colleges or universities would let him join their
faculty but black colleges and universities welcomed his brilliance with
open arms.

it wasn’t because Einstein was an immigrant, it was because he was Jewish

until the late 1940s most American universities including harvard and other ivy league colleges had quotas limiting the number of Jewish students and staff, Yale’s quota only ended in the 1960s
