The document discusses how The Wonderful Wizard of Oz can be interpreted as an allegory for the Populist movement in the late 19th century United States. Key characters and elements in the story represented different political factions and economic issues at the time. Dorothy represents the American people seeking a way home from the uncertainties of the period. The Yellow Brick Road symbolizes the gold standard, while the Wicked Witches of the East and West depict industrialists and corporations of the East and West. Characters like the Scarecrow, Tin Man, and Cowardly Lion embodied farmers, workers, and Populist leader William Jennings Bryan, respectively.
The document summarizes several aspects of life in the United States during the 1920s (Jazz Age). It discusses how immigration was restricted through the National Origins Act of 1924, which set quotas based on country of origin. It also describes the Sacco and Vanzetti case, in which two Italian immigrants were convicted of murder amid nativist sentiment. Women gained more freedoms in the 1920s compared to the pre-WWI era, exemplified by the emerging "flapper" lifestyle, but still faced restrictions in politics and the workplace. The Ku Klux Klan grew in popularity during this time as well.
The Progressive Era saw Americans seeking reforms in the early 20th century to address issues arising from rapid industrialization, immigration, and urbanization. Progressives promoted social welfare by improving public health and reducing child labor. They also sought to make government and businesses more efficient and regulate large monopolies. Additionally, Progressives pushed for moral reforms like temperance and women's suffrage. Teddy Roosevelt championed many progressive causes with his Square Deal agenda during his presidency from 1901-1909.
In 1898, the United States asserted itself as a world power through military expansion and imperialism. This watershed year saw the U.S. annex Hawaii, defeat Spain in the Spanish-American War, and gain control of Cuba, Guam, Puerto Rico, and the Philippines. The U.S. victory over Spain's outdated navy demonstrated America's emergence as a modern naval power and triggered the nation's rise on the global stage.
The document summarizes the key economic and social developments in the United States from the 1850s to the late 1800s, including the expansion of railroads, cattle drives on the Great Plains, conflicts with Native Americans, industrialization after the Civil War, the rise of large corporations and monopolies, poor working conditions in factories, the growth of labor unions, social Darwinism and the justification of capitalism, and the rise of Jim Crow laws and racial violence in the South.
The document discusses the development of the American West in the late 19th century. It notes that while most felt the Great Plains could not be farmed, they were well suited for cattle grazing. This led to the establishment of vast cattle drives to transport Texas longhorns to railroads further north. The railroads, which saw significant expansion in the 1860s-70s, helped open up the Plains to farming through land grants and new technologies like barbed wire. However, this westward expansion displaced Native Americans and led to conflicts over land and assimilationist policies.
This document provides an overview of key events and people in American history from the ratification of the Bill of Rights to the start of the Civil War.
