A nation of immigrants(11)
This document discusses immigration to the United States from the late 19th century to the early 20th century. It asks students to identify their family's country of origin and compare immigration numbers nationally. It provides information about Ellis Island and Angel Island, once major ports of entry for European and Asian immigrants respectively. It notes that all immigrants faced difficulties adjusting to life in America and that Chinese and Japanese immigrants faced particular restrictions and resentment. The document questions how immigration changed America at the turn of the 20th century and why the topic remains relevant today.
Growth of big business(3)
This document discusses the rise of big business and new market structures in the late 19th century. It describes monopolies, where one firm has complete control over a product or service, and oligopolies, where a market is dominated by a few large firms. It provides examples of modern oligopolies and discusses cartels, which illegally fix prices. The document also covers different strategies for business growth, such as vertical and horizontal consolidation, and mentions historical figures like Carnegie and Rockefeller who used these strategies.
Reform(13)
The document discusses various social reform movements that occurred in the late 19th and early 20th centuries in the United States. The goal of these reform movements was to improve society and help the needy through charitable efforts, as there was little government support at the time. The movements included the Charity Organization Movement, Social Gospel Movement, and Settlement Movement. They commonly promoted ideals of community service and "paying it forward."
Making a living in the west(7)
The document discusses different ways that people made a living in the American West. Mining for gold sparked major migrations to places like California as towns popped up near mining sites. Ranching involved herding cattle on long trails and being a cowboy was difficult physical work. Farming required families to work together to build sod homes and use new technologies like steel plows and barbed wire to cultivate crops with little water.
Impact of technologies(1)
The document discusses the impact of 19th and 21st century technologies on daily life and communication. Key developments in the 19th century included the widespread adoption of electric lights in homes and businesses, advances in transportation like railroads that linked the east and west coasts, and new forms of energy like oil. In the 21st century, daily life revolves around 24/7 connectivity through mobile devices, social media allows for constant sharing of ideas, and communication technologies have created an interconnected world where information spreads instantly.

Pressures to expand(4)
There were four main reasons for the growth of imperialism: economic, nationalism, military, and humanitarian factors. Economically, nations faced overproduction and needed new markets and natural resources from developing countries. Militarily, nations sought to increase their power by dominating weaker ones. Nationalism fueled the belief that a nation's ideals and goals were superior. These pressures led the U.S. to expand its territory through policies like Manifest Destiny and annexing lands like Hawaii for their resources and markets to support economic growth.
Labor unions in u.s.(4)
The document discusses the development of labor unions in the United States. It describes how there was a large gap between the rich and poor in the late 19th century, with a small percentage of people owning most of the wealth. This led local unions to form initially and then expand nationally after the Civil War, though they struggled due to economic conditions. The goals of unions were to improve wages, working conditions, limit work days, and end child labor. Over time, union membership has declined significantly from its peak in the mid-20th century.

Moving west(6)
The document summarizes the reasons for and factors driving westward expansion in the United States in the late 19th century, including the Homestead Act of 1862 which incentivized settling in the West by granting citizens ownership of 160 acres of land, the prospect of gold and fortune out West, and the construction of the Transcontinental Railroad which made travel and transportation easier; however, living in the West required a significant amount of luck and hard work.
Conflict with native americans(8)
Conflict between American settlers and Native Americans arose from the westward expansion of the United States in search of land and resources. As settlers moved west, they negotiated treaties to remove Native Americans from their lands, often by force, pushing tribes onto reservations over the next 30 years through wars that killed hundreds. Attempts were also made to assimilate Native American cultures, including through boarding schools, but many Native Americans resisted giving up their traditions and way of life. The conflicts and policies of the U.S. government nearly destroyed many Native American societies.
Profession and professionalism in pharmacy
This document discusses the concepts of profession and professionalism. It defines a profession as having a specialized body of knowledge that enables members to perform a useful social function. Professions are influenced by values like duties, ethics, and economic outcomes. They are characterized by specialized knowledge, attitudes, social sanction, and a desire to serve society. Professional traits include knowledge, commitment to improvement, service orientation, and ethical decision-making. The document uses pharmacy as an example profession and outlines its knowledge base and roles in healthcare management. Professionalism refers to demonstrating appropriate attitudes and behaviors through altruism, accountability, excellence and duty.
Wizard of oz(9)
The document discusses the Populist Party of the late 1800s and how the Wizard of Oz can be interpreted as an allegory for Populist ideas and the political issues of the time. Farmers struggled with falling crop prices and debt, and supported the Populist platform of expanding the money supply through the silver standard. The characters in the Wizard of Oz represent different groups - the Scarecrow represents farmers, the Tin Man represents industrial workers, the Cowardly Lion represents William Jennings Bryan, and the Munchkins represent oppressed workers. The story reflected the Populist view that large corporations oppressed ordinary Americans.
Progressives(1)
The Progressive Era was a period of reform between 1890-1920 in the United States. Many reforms were enacted at all levels of government to address problems that had arisen from rapid industrialization, immigration, and urbanization. The Progressive movement grew out of earlier reform efforts and started at the local level before expanding. Progressives believed that government should work to improve lives and that private charities were not enough. They advocated for social, political, economic, and moral reforms. Both local and state governments enacted changes like establishing labor departments and restricting child labor. Under President Roosevelt, federal reforms addressed issues like railroad regulation, public health, and workers' rights.
