Manifest Destiny: A Tribute to the Old West and Modern Westerns
A tapestry of magnificent images cut from modern westerns celebrating the film genre, The Wild West and the bold American Spirit that united a land from sea to shining sea. Featuring beautiful Western landscapes, beautiful women, violence and a little romance.
Manifest destiny was a cultural belief in the 19th-century United States that White American settlers were destined to expand across North America. It was an early expression of American imperialism in the United States of America.
There were three basic tenets to the concept:
-The inherent superiority of white Americans 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.
Historians have emphasized that "manifest destiny" was always contested. Many endorsed the idea, but the large majority of Whigs and many prominent Americans (such as Abraham Lincoln and Ulysses S. Grant) rejected the concept. Historian Daniel Walker Howe writes, "American imperialism did not represent an American consensus; it provoked bitter dissent within the national polity".
Manifest destiny became one of several major campaign issues during the 1844 presidential election; it was used by Democrats in the 1840s to justify the Mexican–American War and to negotiate the Oregon boundary dispute. Historian Frederick Merk says manifest destiny always limped along because of its internal limitations and the issue of slavery, and never became a national priority of the United States. By 1843, former U.S. President John Quincy Adams, originally a major supporter of the concept underlying manifest destiny, had changed his mind and repudiated expansionism because it meant the expansion of slavery in Texas.
Newspaper editor John O'Sullivan is generally credited with coining the term manifest destiny in 1845 to describe the essence of this mindset; other historians believe the unsigned editorial titled "Annexation" in which it first appeared was written by journalist and annexation advocate Jane Cazneau.
Do YOU believe in a Higher Power? If you do, chances are you believe Manifest Destiny is the greatest sham ever perpetrated against humanity and indigenous peoples.
