The Declaration of Independence declares that "all men are created equal."
Alina [70]

Answer: The statement “all men are created equal” was said in a time that, quite frankly, did not truly understand this fact at all. It was written by Thomas Jefferson, who owned slaves. When we read this now we find it obvious and powerful, but it took a very long time for it to be put into action. At the time it was written, it was made to mean all white men are created equal. Thankfully this has changed. A group that promotes what this statement should mean, is NAACP. NAACP fights for racial equality and has been since the civil rights movement. This statement, although written by the government, has actually commonly been used against the government. From the beginning of the civil rights movement, people have brought the hypocrisy of this statement to the attention of those in power. It came in handy as a strong argument that ultimately brought the success of the civil rights movement.

Below is a drawing of John Gast’s painting American Progress. Annotate the drawing by adding a speech or thought bubble for four
tatyana61 [14]

According to a different source, this is the image that the question refers to.

In this question, we are asked to approach the question of "How justifiable was U.S. expansion in the 1800s?" from the perspective of four elements in the painting. This is an example that can help you guide your work:

The angel: "I carry the telegraph, I carry knowledge, I carry progress. You should be grateful."

The cows: "More expansion means more land, which means more farms and more cows. I think I like that!"

The Native Americans: "Quick! Let's get away before this so-called "progress" reaches us! They will continue to expand and take our land even if they have no right to do so."

The passengers in the train: "Without progress, we would not be in this train. I'm so glad we are expanding! It is necessary if we want technology to keep developing."

Although expansion was supported by a large portion of the population of the United States, not everyone believed that this was a good idea. In fact, the Native Americans, as well as many politicians, believed that expansion was not legitimate, and that it could bring more problems than anticipated.
