When immigrants encounter hostility because their manners are different, they are experiencing ethnocentrism.

Ethnocentrism means that you are evaluating someone else's culture based on the rules and customs of your own culture. So, if you treat immigrants in a hostile way just because their culture and manners are different from yours, you are showing them ethnocentrism.
