Manifest Destiny
• During 1800s until the 1900s pioneers were heading West to the new land.
• The white settlers were surprised to see “settlers” already inhabiting the land…Indians!
• In 1830, the US gov’t decided to confine the Indians to reservations.
• Indians that were unrelenting to move or adapt (assimilation) were slaughtered.

Negro America?• Post WWI brought hope to Black
America with the promise of sharecropping: a system of agriculture in which a landowner allows a tenant to use the land in return for a share of the crop produced on the land (e.g., 50% of the crop).
• Post war efforts were thwarted by white America who saw the changes as a threat. This began a period of segregation and violence as blacks fought back.
• The Garvey Movement: An urge to convince those of African descent to move back to Africa; led by Marcus Garvey Jr.
