Andrew Jackson's policies regarding Native American removal inhibited the cause of democracy in three key ways: 1) Jackson ignored Supreme Court rulings that prevented states like Georgia from removing Native Americans from their tribal lands, undermining the system of checks and balances. 2) The Indian Removal Act authorized the president to negotiate removal treaties with Native Americans through misleading and coercive means, rather than obtaining genuine consent. 3) Jackson's forced removal of the Cherokee on the Trail of Tears, which resulted in thousands of deaths, disregarded Native American sovereignty and rights in favor of white settlers and the states' interests over the rule of law.

Andrew jackson
The document summarizes key events during Andrew Jackson's presidency and the rise of Jacksonian democracy. It describes how Jackson appealed to common workers and farmers in his campaigns. His supporters saw him as representing the interests of average citizens over the wealthy elite. As president, Jackson fired many government officials and replaced them with political allies, establishing the spoils system. He also signed the Indian Removal Act, leading to the forced relocation of Native Americans and the tragic Trail of Tears. Sectional divisions between North and South grew over tariffs and states' rights during Jackson's two terms.
Jacksonian Democracy Presentation
Andrew Jackson was the 7th US President known for expanding executive power and populism. Under Jackson, the "spoils system" rewarded political supporters with government jobs. He also faced the Nullification Crisis over high tariffs, threatening force against states trying to nullify federal law. Jackson aggressively pursued the forced removal of Native Americans, like the Trail of Tears, to gain more land. His actions increased presidential authority and aligned the government more with common voters over elites.

Trail of tears
The Trail of Tears was the forced relocation of Native American tribes, including the Cherokee, from their ancestral homelands in the Southeast to Indian Territory (present-day Oklahoma) in the 1830s. Pressure from white settlers seeking gold and land, coupled with the Indian Removal Act signed by President Andrew Jackson, resulted in the Cherokee and other tribes being forcibly removed from their lands. Over 4,000 Cherokee died during the journey west due to exposure, disease and starvation on what became known as the Trail of Tears.
Hw#21 ppt
The Indian Removal Act of 1830 authorized the president to negotiate treaties to move Native American tribes west of the Mississippi River. This led to the forced removal of the Cherokee nation from their lands in Georgia along the Trail of Tears, where over 4,000 Cherokee died as they were forced to march over 800 miles to Oklahoma at gunpoint. The name "Trail of Tears" comes from the Cherokee translation of the immense suffering they endured during the removal.
The War Of 1812
The War of 1812 was caused by American grievances against Britain related to impressment and attacks on American ships. Known as the War Hawks, a group in Congress pushed for war. They were opposed by Native American leader Tecumseh, who sought an alliance with Britain. Though the U.S. military was unprepared, battles were fought in Canada and at sea. In 1814, British forces burned Washington D.C., but American forces later won a key victory at the Battle of New Orleans under General Andrew Jackson after the war had ended. The war was concluded in 1815 with the signing of the Treaty of Ghent.
Hogan's History- Jacksonian Democracy
Andrew Jackson's presidency from 1829-1837 represented the rise of Jacksonian democracy, which brought economic and political power to ordinary white male citizens. Jackson's policies included the spoils system of political appointments, opposition to the national bank, and the forced removal of Native American tribes from their lands, which came to be known as the "Trail of Tears." Jackson's supporters formed the Democratic Party, while opponents formed the Whig Party. Jackson's strong presidency established the power of the executive branch relative to Congress.
Manifest destiny
Manifest Destiny was the belief in the 1800s that the United States was destined to expand across North America to the Pacific Ocean. From 1803 to 1853, the U.S. more than doubled in size through various territorial acquisitions like the Louisiana Purchase, annexation of Texas, and war with Mexico, gaining control of land stretching from coast to coast. This westward expansion was driven by both the desire to spread democracy and economic opportunities like the California Gold Rush of 1849.

The document discusses the various motivations and factors that drove United States expansion westward in the 19th century. Key reasons included the spread of American beliefs and civilization through missionary work; the need for access to ports on the Pacific Ocean and Gulf of Mexico for trade; the beginnings of the Industrial Revolution creating demand for resources and farmland; and a belief in "Manifest Destiny" that America was destined to expand across the continent. Critics argued that this expansion displaced Native Americans and was often justified through racist ideologies.
Causes of the American Revolution
The document summarizes the key events that led to the American Revolution from 1763 to 1774. It provides background on colonial unrest growing due to new taxes from the British Parliament and King George III's proclamations restricting colonists. This tension escalated through acts like the Stamp Act, Quartering Act, Boston Massacre, and Intolerable Acts. By 1774, the First Continental Congress convened and war appeared inevitable after the Battles of Lexington and Concord.
Presentation on the Trail of Tears
This document summarizes the Trail of Tears, which was the forced relocation of the Cherokee nation in the 1830s. It describes how the Indian Removal Act allowed the government to remove Native Americans from the Southeast to lands west of the Mississippi. Specifically, it discusses how the Cherokee refused to leave Georgia, resulting in the Supreme Court ruling in Worcester v. Georgia that Georgia had no right to remove them. However, President Jackson ignored this ruling. In 1838, over 7,000 troops forced the Cherokee on the trail west, resulting in thousands of deaths from disease and hardship along the 800-mile journey.
Missouri Compromise
The Missouri Compromise of 1820 balanced the number of free and slave states by admitting Missouri as a slave state and Maine as a free state. It also prohibited slavery in territories north of the 36°30' parallel, excluding Missouri. This compromise temporarily resolved the issue of the expansion of slavery but increased sectional tensions and ultimately failed to prevent the Civil War.

The document summarizes the forced removal of Native American tribes from their eastern lands to territory west of the Mississippi River in the 1830s. It describes the Cherokee and Creek tribes being forced from their homes in Georgia, Alabama, and other states to march west on the Trail of Tears. Thousands died during the long journeys, due to harsh conditions and disease. The Indian Removal Act of 1830, pushed by President Andrew Jackson, allowed the government to remove eastern tribes and seize their lands.
Thomas jefferson

As president, Jefferson simplifies the presidency by reducing the military and taxes while expanding U.S. territory through the Louisiana Purchase which doubles the size of the country. Jefferson also establishes judicial review and the Supreme Court's ability to declare laws unconstitutional through the Marbury v. Madison case.
Trail of Tears
This document summarizes key events involving the forced removal of Native American tribes from their eastern lands in the 1830s. It describes how the Black Hawk War led to the Sauk tribe being forced out of Illinois, then the passage of the Indian Removal Act allowing the federal government to relocate tribes west of the Mississippi River against their will. It discusses how the Cherokee tribe, who had adopted aspects of white culture, sued Georgia over the seizure of their lands, but President Jackson refused to enforce the Supreme Court ruling in their favor. Finally, it outlines how the Cherokee were then forcibly marched west on the Trail of Tears, during which a quarter of the tribe perished.
The American Revolution
The document discusses the events leading up to the American Revolution from the 1700s through the Revolutionary War in the 1770s. It describes how England's debts from the French and Indian War led them to impose taxes on the American colonies through acts like the Stamp Act and Tea Act. Tensions rose and the Boston Tea Party occurred in protest. The Intolerable Acts in response sparked the First Continental Congress and ultimately war between the colonies and Britain, culminating in American independence being recognized in the Treaty of Paris in 1783.
Lecture on Industrial america
By 1900, the U.S. had emerged as the world's leading industrial power due to its abundant natural resources, growing labor supply through immigration, capital investments, technological innovations, and business-friendly government policies. Wealthy industrialists and entrepreneurs like Carnegie, Rockefeller, Morgan, and Ford built vast industrial empires in steel, oil, banking, and automobiles through practices like vertical integration and trusts that eliminated competition. New technologies revolutionized areas like transportation, communication, manufacturing, and daily life. However, concerns grew about the power of large trusts and monopolies as well as wealth inequality between the rich industrialists and the working class.

The american revolution
The American Revolution was an uneven fight between 1775-1783, with Britain having advantages in military strength and resources over the American colonists. Key turning points included the Continental Army's surprise victory at Trenton and the British surrender at Saratoga, which convinced France to ally with the Americans. With further support from France and other countries, Washington was able to trap Cornwallis' forces at Yorktown in 1781, marking the last major battle. The Treaty of Paris in 1783 officially recognized American independence.
Reconstruction (1865-1877)
The Reconstruction of the South summarizes the period after the Civil War when the United States sought to reintegrate the Confederate states and protect the rights of freed slaves.

War of 1812
The War of 1812 was fought between the United States and the British Empire, including British North America (Canada). For Canadians, it was a war of survival to prevent being conquered by the United States. Although the U.S. population vastly outnumbered Canadians, General Isaac Brock and Shawnee chief Tecumseh helped the smaller Canadian forces defeat the U.S. invasions through deception and strategic victories. While the war ended in a stalemate, it ensured Canada's independence from the U.S. and established it as a separate nation.
Events that Led up to the Revolutionary War
The document provides details on the key events that led up to the Revolutionary War between the American colonies and Great Britain. It describes how Britain gained territory in North America after the French and Indian War, but this created conflicts over land use with Native Americans. It then outlines the various Acts passed by Britain to tax the colonies, such as the Stamp Act, Townshend Acts, and Intolerable Acts, which angered the colonists.

Trailof tears ppt
The document summarizes the Trail of Tears, which was the forced relocation of the Cherokee Nation in the 1830s. The Cherokee were removed from their ancestral lands in Georgia and other southeastern states following the Indian Removal Act of 1830. Over 4,000 Cherokee died due to the poor conditions during their march west to Indian Territory (now Oklahoma). Some Cherokee escaped the removal by hiding out in the Appalachian Mountains of Georgia and North Carolina.
Native Americans
Native Americans had diverse cultures among different tribes, each with their own languages, religions, and customs. They viewed nature as sacred and believed land should be shared by all. However, European settlers had fundamental cultural differences around concepts of private land ownership that led to conflicts as settlers removed Native Americans from their lands. Over time, U.S. policies aimed to assimilate Native American tribes through relocation to reservations, breaking of treaties, and cultural assimilation in boarding schools, which undermined Native American identities and ways of life. Many face ongoing problems today as a result of the lasting impacts of these past injustices.

Trail Of Tears Essay
The Trail of Tears was a forced relocation of Native American tribes in the 1830s that resulted in thousands of deaths. The document discusses the causes of the Indian Removal Act, including the discovery of gold on Cherokee lands and the greed of white settlers wanting more territory. It describes the suffering of the Cherokee and other tribes as they were forced from their homelands on a long journey to what is now Oklahoma, facing disease, starvation, and death along the way.
Indian Removal Power Point
After settlers moved into Native American lands following the American Revolution, conflict arose between settlers and the Cherokee and Creek tribes located in Georgia. The Cherokee adapted more to white culture than other tribes, living in houses, farming, and owning slaves. In the 1820s, gold was discovered on Cherokee land, attracting over 10,000 settlers. Georgia then passed laws denying Cherokee rights to their lands. This led to the Cherokee's forced removal to Oklahoma along the "Trail of Tears" in 1838, despite the objections of Cherokee leader John Ross.

Hw#33 labor unions
Labor unions used collective bargaining and strikes to attempt to improve working conditions for workers. Through collective bargaining, unions would negotiate with employers to reach agreements on issues like wages, hours, and safety conditions. If negotiations failed, unions would call strikes as a tactic to put pressure on employers. However, early strikes were often met with violence from employers, police, and use of federal troops. Over time, unions continued to organize and use strikes to gain bargaining power and protections, such as the Wagner Act which legally protected the right to unionize.

Industrialization and urbanization in the United States had some negative impacts. Industrialization led to poor working conditions in factories and pollution from manufacturing. Urbanization resulted in overcrowded cities with inadequate housing, infrastructure, and public services for the large populations that migrated to urban areas for work in the late 19th century.

Hw#4 principles of the constitution
The document outlines the six key principles of the US Constitution:
1. Separation of powers which divides the government into three branches.
2. Checks and balances where each branch limits the power of the others through veto powers, judicial oversight, and legislative overrides.
3. Popular sovereignty which establishes that the government's authority comes from the people.
Hw#4 mercantilism
Mercantilism was an economic system where countries aimed to export more than they imported in order to accumulate wealth. Under this system, colonies provided raw materials to their "mother country" since importing goods was discouraged. Great Britain passed laws like the Navigation Acts to enforce mercantilism and benefit themselves. However, they needed more labor from colonies to produce goods like wood and cotton. This led to the growth of the transatlantic slave trade, as slaves provided a source of free labor that could meet the increasing demands of mercantilism.
Hw#31 immigration
The document discusses three waves of immigration to the United States: Old immigrants from northern Europe between 1600-1850 who settled on farms in the Midwest; New immigrants from southern and eastern Europe between 1860-1920 who moved to cities in the Northeast and worked in factories and mines; and modern immigrants since 1965 from Latin America and Asia. It notes the reasons for immigration included economic opportunities, religious/political persecution, and the promise of freedoms in the US. New immigrants initially arrived at Ellis Island or Angel Island and faced inspections before entering the country. Their expectations of America contrasted with the difficult living conditions they encountered in urban tenements and sweatshops. The massive immigration during this period resulted in a population shift from rural to urban
Washington-DuBois-Garvey
This document discusses different approaches taken by Booker T. Washington, W.E.B. Du Bois, and Marcus Garvey to address problems faced by African Americans after the Reconstruction era. Washington advocated for vocational training and cooperation between blacks and whites to achieve economic prosperity and social equality. Du Bois argued for consistent advocacy of civil and social rights to ensure equal opportunities and safety. Garvey promoted the creation of black nations in Africa as the only solution due to overcrowding in America threatening African Americans. Students are asked to determine which approach they feel would be most effective.
Reconstruction
This document discusses the Supreme Court case Plessy v. Ferguson (1896). The key details are:
- In 1890, Louisiana passed a law requiring "equal but separate accommodations" for black and white races on railway trains.
- In 1892, Homer Plessy, who was of mixed race, refused to move to the segregated car for black passengers and was arrested.
- The case went to the Supreme Court to determine if the law violated the 13th and 14th Amendments.
- The Court ruled against Plessy, establishing the "separate but equal" doctrine that allowed racial segregation if facilities were equal, which effectively upheld Jim Crow laws.
Lincoln's actions ppt
Lincoln tried to preserve the Union during the Civil War in several ways:
1) In his first inaugural address, he pledged there would be no war unless the South started it and that his goal was to preserve the Union and stop the spread of slavery, not necessarily end it.
2) He suspended habeas corpus in 1861 to arrest Confederate sympathizers and prevent rebellion.
3) He issued the Emancipation Proclamation in 1863, which freed all slaves in rebelling Confederate states and changed the purpose of the war to one of freeing slaves in addition to preserving the Union.
4) He called for a military draft in 1863 to bolster the Union army.
Slavery compromises
The document summarizes several compromises that were attempted in the United States in the 1800s to address the issue of expanding slavery into new western territories:
- The Missouri Compromise of 1820 allowed Missouri to enter the union as a slave state but banned slavery in territories above the 36°30' parallel, except Missouri.
- The Compromise of 1850 admitted California as a free state, organized Utah and New Mexico with popular sovereignty, and strengthened the Fugitive Slave Act.
- The Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854 also organized the territories of Kansas and Nebraska with popular sovereignty, fueling tensions and violence known as "Bleeding Kansas" over the slavery issue.
Sectionalism
The document discusses sectionalism in the United States brought about by the westward expansion and the issue of whether new territories should enter the union as slave or free states. It provides discussion questions and tasks for students, including having them read positions from Calhoun and Webster on the issue and respond with a mock tweet agreeing with one of them.
Hw#26 abolition movement ppt
The document summarizes key aspects of the abolition movement in the United States, including the conditions slaves faced, Nat Turner's rebellion, and prominent abolitionist leaders and their efforts. It describes the daily hardships of slaves, such as living in poor conditions without rights. It also outlines Turner's rebellion and the increased restrictions placed on slaves afterwards. Finally, it discusses influential abolitionists like Frederick Douglass, William Lloyd Garrison, Harriet Beecher Stowe, and Harriet Tubman, and their roles in advocating for emancipation through newspapers, speeches, books, and aiding the Underground Railroad.
Homestead & pacific railway acts copy
The United States encouraged settlement of the West through two key laws:
1. The Homestead Act of 1862 gave land to settlers who farmed the land for 5 years, aiming to encourage migration. However, many struggled to meet requirements or afford keeping the lands.
2. The Pacific Railway Act provided land grants and funding to railroad companies to build a transcontinental railroad, linking the East and West coasts and facilitating migration. This increased migration to the Western interior but also brought challenges.
Hw#24 the california gold rush of 1849
The California Gold Rush began in 1848 when gold was discovered by James Marshall at Sutter's Mill near Sacramento. Word of the discovery quickly spread, with some 80,000 prospectors, called "forty-niners", traveling to California in 1849 hoping to strike it rich. The influx of miners and settlers transformed California, leading to its statehood in 1850. While some miners succeeded in finding gold, others faced harsh conditions and discrimination, especially Chinese immigrants. The Gold Rush spurred major economic and population growth in California and the western United States.
Hw#24 sectionalism
Westward expansion increased sectionalism in the United States by deepening economic and social differences between regions. As new lands opened in the West, the North focused on industry and opposed slavery's expansion, while the South wanted to protect its agricultural economy based on plantation slavery. Henry Clay believed sectionalism was harmful to the country by dividing loyalty to regions rather than the nation as a whole.
Hw#23 the california gold rush of 1849
The California Gold Rush began in 1848 when gold was discovered at Sutter's Mill by James Marshall. News of the discovery spread quickly, attracting around 80,000 prospectors, known as "forty-niners", to California in 1849 hoping to strike it rich. The Gold Rush transformed California from a sparsely-populated territory into a major economic force, leading to its statehood in 1850. While some prospectors succeeded in finding gold, most failed and boom towns came and went as mining sites were depleted.
Manifest destiny ppt
1) Americans justified westward expansion through the belief in "Manifest Destiny", the idea that it was God's plan for America to control all of North America.
2) They expanded westward through various means such as treaties, purchases of territory like the Louisiana Purchase, and wars with Mexico which resulted in additional land acquisitions.
3) Between 1820 and 1850, 4 million Americans moved west, helping to populate and claim more of the western lands, furthering the cause of Manifest Destiny.
Mexican american war-causes (1)
The United States annexed Texas in 1845, which Mexico still claimed as its territory. This caused a border dispute between the Rio Grande and Nueces Rivers. Tensions escalated after U.S. troops occupied the Rio Grande, which Mexico saw as an invasion. In 1846, shots were fired between U.S. and Mexican soldiers, prompting President Polk to ask Congress to declare war on Mexico.
Indian removal
President Andrew Jackson's signing of the Indian Removal Act and its impact on Native Americans is examined. Students are asked to choose whether they want to hear from President Jackson defending the Act or from Native Americans explaining how it affected them. A political cartoon portrays Jackson and the treatment of indigenous people, and students are prompted to discuss whether the Cherokees were uncivilized and if Jackson should remain on the $20 bill.
