xenophobes
Fear foreign people
Xenophobes are people who fear or hate foreigners, foreign cultures, or things perceived as foreign.
The term carries strong negative connotations—calling someone a xenophobe implies irrational prejudice rather than legitimate concern: The new immigration policy was crafted by xenophobes.
