Answer:

That was the exclamation when a large vein of valuable ore was discovered. Thousands of optimistic Americans and even a few foreigners dreamed of finding a bonanza and retiring at a very young age.

Ten years after the 1849 CALIFORNIA GOLD RUSH, new deposits were gradually found throughout the West. Colorado yielded gold and silver at PIKES PEAK in 1859 and LEADVILLE IN 1873. NEVADA claimed COMSTOCK LODE, the largest of American silver strikes.

From COEUR D'ALENE in Idaho to TOMBSTONE in Arizona, BOOM TOWNS flowered across the American West. They produced not only gold and silver, but zinc, copper, and lead, all essential for the eastern Industrial Revolution. Soon the West was filled with ne'er-do-wells hoping to strike it rich.

Radda [10]

The history of the United States during 1865 to 1918 not 1910 specifically covers the Reconstruction era, the Gilded Age and the Progressive Era and involves the industrialization and the surge of immigration. It is a time period in which America expanded in many aspects. This period shows a roaming growth in the North and in the West (but not in the South). The average annual income of non farm workers grew by 75% from 1865 to 1900 and grew another 33% by 1918. America gained importance when it easily defeated Spain  in 1898 that unexpectedly brought a small empire. Cuba was quickly given independence as well as the Philippines (in 1946), Puerto Rico and some other small islands became American possessions as did Alaska that was bought to the Russians in 1867. The independent Republic of Hawaii voluntarily joined the US as a territory in 1898.

How did the Harlem Renaissance expand LGBT rights?
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

From roughly 1919 to 1935, the literary and artistic movement now known as the Harlem Renaissance produced an outpouring of celebrated works by Black artists and writers.

Relatively recent scholarship has emphasized not only the influence gay social networks had on the Harlem Renaissance’s development, but also the importance of sexual identity in more fully understanding a person’s work and creative process. Key LGBT figures of this period include, among others, poets Langston Hughes, Countee Cullen, and Claude McKay; performers Ethel Waters, Edna Thomas, and Alberta Hunter; intellectual Alain Locke; literary salon owner Alexander Gumby; and sculptor Richmond Barthé.

This curated theme features a selection of literary salons, neighborhood institutions, public art, and residences that reflect the impact of the Black LGBT community on one of the 20th century’s most significant cultural movements.
