kansas became a state because americans who lived there wanted those political rights. same thing happened in hawaii. so hawaii is a territory, and becomes a state by 1959. so hawaii, of the list we have, was the only one considered and incorporated territory. they were an incorporated territory in 1900. so that is the only one on list , we have today. the interesting thing about the philippines, the united states with cuba was super tired up with it. americans consumed a lot of sugar and there was a lot of direct investment there. americans consumed philippine sugar for quite some time, but there were almost no americans or american investment in the philippines at the time the united states acquired it in the treaty of paris. but during the treaty negotiations, they felt they had the option to get the philippines. the philippines had 17 million people, thousands of islands, it is a large colony, and it was a colony that was highly desired by other powers. americans felt like, we got it so we should keep it, especially to keep it from other empires, two empires at the t

americans. in 2019 the united states is a country of chandra 39 -- 230 9 million people. most americans live in urban areas, parts of the country where they never actually see american indians. indian images -- american indian images, place names, advertising surround people every single day. this is the strange contradiction of help: american .ndians are in american life really for americans throughout their lives. yet somehow it's never noticed very much, never seems important. the team decide to call this indians everywhere. isis about normalizing what actually a very weird phenomena in. -- phenomena. where one ethnic group has been used for so many different purposes for such a long time into the present. it is beyond the idea of stereotypes or cultural appropriation and look at the and the of it uniqueness of it and explore the reasons for why they exist. we have over 300 objects and images from before the country .egan up to the present they cover every manner of advertising for every sort of products. there are major projects that will get a significant amount of at

it really imagines a future in which the united states would exist without american indians. it proposes an exchange of land so that indians inside the territorial borders of the united states would be west of the mississippi. this is one solution, igniting a national debate. and what we show in this section is how many points of view there were on this. american indians had a great deal of agency and influence. john ross, the cherokee leader was a national political figure in the united states. , bothld marshal allies politicians and members of congress, but also civic groups. there were legislators opposed to what this act was talking about, which was a removal of american indians. we knew that most americans today, if they knew the term trail of tears, they understand that it was a moment of national shame for the united states. there are few people that say that was their finest hour, let's do it again. we know people understand it was something the country regrets. what we were interested in doing is trying to explain how there was a real national debate about this that p

american flag. the message inside was clear, immigrants are a threat to the united states. ite protestant americans are the only true americans, vigilance and regulation through the kkk's campaign of racial violence was the only way to protect america for americans. by the 1920's congress established discriminatory national origins quotas that kept the doors open to immigrants from northern and western europe, but closed it to almost everyone else. countries like great britain, germany, ireland, sweden received nearly 87% of the visas while countries like poland, italy, czechoslovakia, russia received just 11%. the impact was great. so far a country like italy, which had sent in 1921 over 222,000 immigrants after the quotas were put into place, the quota for italy was only 3845. these laws were championed by adolf hitler in the 1930's. he claimed them as a model for nazi europe. these laws have also been championed by someone more recently, someone sitting in the white house today, white house senior advisor, steven miller. even refugees fleeing nazi europe could not find a

goals with china you need to work with the european union with japan with the organization of american states really with the entire world so that china can't just say ok well we won't trade with the united states but we can just increase selling soybeans to south america which is exactly what's happened or aluminum which then trump using his favorite tool tariffs will then go after south american countries for dealing with. china for example so it's really an interesting contradiction here that we that we see in donald trump's thinking alexander what do you think the the european leaders staying up late to watch this speech people in brussels maybe even. american here in germany what takeaways or would they have gotten from this speech what did trump lay out here that europe should be paying attention to well i would say that maybe they were surprised at president trump was not really talking about you as you were p. and l. lies he talked about it's nato and he also praised himself for pressing need to members to increase increase their defense spending and that it's true that he can take cr

it is not the first in the united states to accept african-american students. what i love about these portraits is how young they are. you know they each went on to lead great lives as activists, as women that were advocating for citizenship rights for all people of the united states, but particularly for african-americans. especially anna julia cooper was a teacher in at a school washington, d.c. which is now the dunbar high school, and she was living the life of someone who truly believed in giving liberal arts education to african americans, as did mary church terrell. she was also teaching at the m street colored school. what i like about these two women was they were especially taking on the responsibility to assimilate african-americans in the post-civil war reconstruction era in a way that would give them white collar access so they can become, once they went to the dunbar high school, then they went to college, and they were business people, leaders, other teachers or nurses. they embody that argument of w.e.b. dubois and booker t. washington that these

among minorities spoke particularly about the low levels of unemployment among african-americans in the united states among hispanic americans and also among asian american so clearly sending a message the message i have to them he also spoke about democratic plans to abolish the health insurance. system that they have here in place and saying that he wouldn't live socialism destroy u.s. health care he also brought up going rights and also immigration policy so so some of like we'll say the big key areas that we're expecting this election campaign to focus on as expected but perhaps not for everybody it was a very very divisive it was a very divisive state of the union of course millions of americans were glued to their t.v. screens last night and in fact here in washington d.c. some of them even got together so it's always best to hear from one so many people have to say let's hear from some students here in the united states capitol. call on our air tran supporter so like i'm watching it sort of to mock him. and i think a lot of the stuff he's said about like abortion and things i don't really agre
