Shadows of the Gilded Age Immigrants and Native Americans in the late 19 th Century

Life as an Immigrant How the Other Half Lives How the Other Half Lives: Studies among the Tenements of New York (1890) was an early publication of photojournalism by Jacob Riis, documenting squalid living conditions in New York City slums in the 1880s. It served as a basis for future "muckraking" journalism by exposing the slums to New York City’s upper and middle classes. Ex: Thoroughly Modern Millie

Golden Spike Ceremony at Promontory Point, Utah 1869

Chinese Labor during the Gilded Age California Gold Rush ( ) Competition forced immigrants into enclaves- ex: San Francisco Workingman’s Party of CA- Denis Kearney “The Chinese Must GO!” Chinese Exclusion Act 1882 Prohibits all immigration of Chinese laborers Scott Act 1888 Prohibits re-entry

Effects Commercial human smuggling China Boycotts US goods ( ) Cuts US exports in half Immigration Act 1924 Restricted #’s to 105 Chinese/year (yippee!) Scapegoats—Japanese National Origins Act banned immigration from E. Asia entirely

Life as a Native American

Assimilation- American education, language, clothes, and no compensation for upkeep of schools Reservations- Given rations that other Americans were only given during times of war The “White Man’s Burden” in the West
