Reasons For Westward Migration Transcontinental RRs: Often built by the Irish and Chinese RRs were given government subsidies Encouraged westward settlement Mineral Resources: Comstock Lode - present-day Nevada Led to a silver rush Government policies: Homestead Act (160 acres of land) Pacific Railway Act These created new communities and centers of commercial activity

Westward Migration Many migrants moved to rural and boomtown areas of the West Hoped to achieve self-sufficiency “Safety-valve” theory: Idea that one could always move west and make $ during tough economic times Economic opportunities: Building RRs, mining, farming, ranching Teddy Roosevelt in the 1880s

Impacts Of Western Migration Bison population decreased drastically Competition for land between Whites, Natives, and Mexican Americans Sioux Wars (1866): Result of gold discovery in South Dakota Battle of Little Bighorn (Custer’s Last Stand) Victory for Natives as Custer and his men were killed

A Century Of Dishonor Written by Helen Hunt Jackson in 1881 Chronicled a 100 year period of unfair treatment of Natives by the US government

US Government Interaction With Natives The US often violated treaties with Natives Indian Appropriation Act of 1871: Ended tribal recognition as independent nations - nullified previous treaties Would use military force to resistance Battle of Wounded Knee - 1890 - 300 Natives were killed (women and children) Most Natives were moved to reservations Loss of sovereignty

Natives Seek To Preserve Autonomy US promoted policies of assimilation Dawes Act (1887): Sent Native children to boarding schools, had to speak English Native families were given individual plots of land Hunting to farming Natives practiced the Ghost Dance: Ceremony in which Natives envisioned the return of bison and elimination of whites
