Write a paragraph that explains why Kansas looked like the promised land of African Americans

History
1 answer:
Ganezh [65]3 years ago

With the promise of freedom and new economic and educational opportunities, Kansas attracted many African Americans in its territorial days, through statehood, and into the 20th century. Slavery existed in the Kansas Territory, but slave holdings were small compared to the South. Many black migrants also came to the territory as hired laborers, while some traveled as escaped slaves through the Underground Railroad. In the 1860s, others joined the Union Army, and some moved from the South in large groups during the Kansas Exodus, a mass migration of freedpeople during the 1870s and 1880s. As a territory that had a long and violent history of pre-Civil War contests over slavery, Kansas emerged as the “quintessential free state” and seemed like a promised land for African Americans who searched for what they called a “New Canaan.”

consider some of the ways in which mass migrations of people both from other countries and from places within the united states
kompoz [17]

The history of capitalism is marked by important displacements of human groups that have seen the need to leave their traditional places of settlement to go to where the needs of the accumulation of capital have summoned them. True, migrations predate much of the history of capitalism, but with this the spatial mobility of men takes on dimensions that were previously unknown.

The United States is a country made up of migrants and migrants. Those who came through the Bering Strait, those who arrived from Europe, those who came from Asia, those who had their origin in the south. Those who arrived, continue and will continue to arrive from all over the world. Those who made it multinational and multicultural. This country is the product of a long history of multiple migratory phases, many of them overlapping, which produce a highly heterogeneous panorama.

The migration process, brought with it, new ideas, and new processes that helped the industrialization of the USA, and as mensona previously, this group of migrants transformed the new nation into a cosmopolitan and multicultural nation
