Answer:
Manifest Destiny, a phrase coined in 1845, is the idea that the United States is destined—by God, its advocates believed—to expand its dominion and spread democracy and capitalism across the entire North American continent.
Explanation:
There are three basic themes to manifest destiny: The special virtues of the American people and their institutions. The mission of the United States to redeem and remake the west in the image of the agrarian East. An irresistible destiny to accomplish this essential duty.
The oldest of eight children, Ida B. Wells was born in Holly Springs, Mississippi. Her parents, who were very active in the Republican Party during Reconstruction, died in a yellow fever epidemic in the late 1870s. Wells attended Rust College and then became a teacher in Memphis, Tennessee. Shortly after she arrived, Wells was involved in an altercation with a white conductor while riding the railroad. She had purchased a first-class ticket, and was seated in the ladies car when the conductor ordered her to sit in the Jim Crow (i.e. black) section, which did not offer first-class accommodations. She refused and when the conductor tried to remove her, she "fastened her teeth on the back of his hand." Wells was ejected from the train, and she sued. She won her case in a lower court, but the decision was reversed in an appeals court.
Nativism - This is the belief that people who were born in a place should be favored instead of immigrants. For example, this used to be popular in the early 1900s, as many people thought that immigrants would take their jobs. During this time, many Chinese people were immigrating to the United States for work, but when work started to run dry, many Americans did not want them to immigrate there anymore. This then caused the Chinese Exclusion Act, which banned immigration from China.
Assimilation - This is where people of other cultures try to take in the values and culture of the majority in a society. For example, this was very prominent with African Americans and Native Americans in history. White Americans would try to assimilate African Americans, so they could be "better functioning" in society. This also happened with Native Americans, even forcing children out of their homes and taking them to boarding schools. They would then strip them of their culture by forcing them to dress differently and wear certain clothes, all to try to get them to work in society better.
Cultural Preservation - This is where culture is preserved. Culture is and has always been a very important thing to people and preserving it is important as well. This makes it so the culture can be passed on for generations to come and it will never be lost. It can be preserved by sharing your culture with others, creating things that represent your culture, preserving sacred lands that have to do with your culture, or many other ways.

Nativism, assimilation, and cultural preservation are connected by immigration and culture. While they are all very different in a lot of ways, as I explained above, they are brought together by culture.
