what are some problems Native Americans faced during the Manifest Destiny? (Im doing an assignment where I have to write a letter to the president demanding reparations and apologies for the consequences of Manifest Destiny) please help
Google works.. :D
I tried and I didn't find anything useful.
Lemme.
Well it certainly caused problems for the Native Americans, who were steadily eradicated or sent to reservations as more and more land became U.S. territory. It also caused problems for the nation of Mexico, which lost all the territory that became the American Southwest. After the West had been settled, that idea of Manifest Destiny was transferred to overseas imperialism beginning in the late 19th Century, the repercussions of which are still felt today. -Yahoo FTW.
I need just the affects it had on the Native Americans though . I have some info but I need more
These are the effects, -_-
like what happened when they were moved to the reservations and life on the reservation for them. that kind of stuff
Loss of culture, poverty, insularism, loss of language, forced to assimilate to the Christian faith and abandon traditions....
