There was disease, malnourishment, ill-clad, depression, premature death, and unbearable loneliness that proved a harsh reality. ]]> 2019-11-25 15:33:36 UTC https://padlet.com/savannahdenis03/e65l60a8o6qx/wish/416209270 savannahdenis03 https://padlet.com/savannahdenis03/e65l60a8o6qx/wish/416212088 In the early stages of industrialization, waterborne commerce was slow, uncertain and dangerous. It was a slow process that took shippers months. The steam boat made transportation much faster, and played a vital role in opening up the west and south and populating river cities. The Lancaster turnpike allowed stockholders to get returns as high as 15% and helped move the westward movement. Movement by canals and other waterways was the cheapest and most efficient way of transportation of not only goods but people. ]]> 2019-11-25 15:37:48 UTC https://padlet.com/savannahdenis03/e65l60a8o6qx/wish/416212088 savannahdenis03 https://padlet.com/savannahdenis03/e65l60a8o6qx/wish/416216199 The steamboat allowed for major changes in the history of naval transport. People were now able to move upstream quickly and easily. This allowed for industrial, economic, and population growth. ]]> 2019-11-25 15:44:00 UTC https://padlet.com/savannahdenis03/e65l60a8o6qx/wish/416216199 savannahdenis03 https://padlet.com/savannahdenis03/e65l60a8o6qx/wish/416217869 Farmers - More inventions allowed for increases in production of crops and increased efficiency, more crops=ability to provide for greater populations of people
Laborers - more innovations created more workplaces, like factories. More factories resulted in an increase in job production. The availability of more jobs resulted in more people wanting to immigrate to America, this increase of immigration in turn led to more jobs. 
Women - There was a decrease in the demand for homemade goods and an increase in familial bonds. Single women had the ability to support themselves financially]]> 2019-11-25 15:46:43 UTC https://padlet.com/savannahdenis03/e65l60a8o6qx/wish/416217869 savannahdenis03 https://padlet.com/savannahdenis03/e65l60a8o6qx/wish/416223690 The transportation revolution was the cause of an extremely costly and inefficient movement of goods and people. It was brought about by new technologies, such as the steamboat and railroad lines. ]]> 2019-11-25 15:55:30 UTC https://padlet.com/savannahdenis03/e65l60a8o6qx/wish/416223690 savannahdenis03 https://padlet.com/savannahdenis03/e65l60a8o6qx/wish/416231812 The early factory system did not shower its benefits evenly to all. In most of the factories hours were long and the buildings were unsanitary. It was often hard to get a solid meal and child labor was very common and they would get paid less. Women would work more hours, but get paid less. ]]> 2019-11-25 16:08:30 UTC https://padlet.com/savannahdenis03/e65l60a8o6qx/wish/416231812 savannahdenis03 https://padlet.com/savannahdenis03/e65l60a8o6qx/wish/416234682 Andrew Jackson was the first president who was from beyond the Appalachian Mountains and strongly supported westward migration. In 1860, after farmers wanted more land to produce more crop, westward expansion allowed for cheap land that they could grow crops on. The demographic was a white majority but was changing as more foreigners began to move for a chance for wealth. ]]> 2019-11-25 16:12:50 UTC https://padlet.com/savannahdenis03/e65l60a8o6qx/wish/416234682 savannahdenis03 https://padlet.com/savannahdenis03/e65l60a8o6qx/wish/416236518 This was a restriction in women's status and condition because women were being put into a completely different economic class than their male counterparts. Women could not vote, most could not own land, and women were primarily only allowed education in the home. Very few women were being accepted into college and it was still a time in which women could legally be beater by their husbands. It is from these facts about the time that people like Susan B Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton reformed so that women could begin to have those rights. ]]> 2019-11-25 16:15:37 UTC https://padlet.com/savannahdenis03/e65l60a8o6qx/wish/416236518 savannahdenis03 https://padlet.com/savannahdenis03/e65l60a8o6qx/wish/416238833 The new family was a progressive reflection of democratic ideals because the families were smaller therefore allowing parents fo focus more on each individual child. This meant a focus on the child's education. This new family concept also taught children to be more independent and to make choices based on their moral standards. The philosophy was that children's will should be shaped not broken. The new family ideal also did restrict women in a few ways. It enforced the idea that women were weak and forced them into a lifelong housewife job. ]]> 2019-11-25 16:18:30 UTC https://padlet.com/savannahdenis03/e65l60a8o6qx/wish/416238833 savannahdenis03 https://padlet.com/savannahdenis03/e65l60a8o6qx/wish/416243296 Americans produced many reforms and utopian movements in order to reorder society and create a better way of life. They primarily did this through the transcendentalist movement that questioned traditional gender roles and protected Americans from the threats of the close minded ideals of Mormons. A lot or reforms also dealt with prohibition, and prison and asylum reforms. These reforms not only made America more diverse, but also brought change and stronger ideas of freedom in American culture. Finally these reviews gave a new perspective on religion, women's rights, imprisonment due to debt, and prison treatment/punishment.]]> 2019-11-25 16:25:06 UTC https://padlet.com/savannahdenis03/e65l60a8o6qx/wish/416243296 savannahdenis03 https://padlet.com/savannahdenis03/e65l60a8o6qx/wish/416246402 The Second Great Awakening is known as one of the most momentous episodes in history of American religion not only because it converted countless people, but it also encouraged evangelicalism. It did this through prison reform, temperance cause, women's movement and a strong desire to abolish slavery in the states. Both were instances occurring in reaction to declining church membership and a lack of religious zeal. They both empowered people to cultivate a direct relationship with God and planted seeds of democratic thought and behavior. ]]> 2019-11-25 16:29:58 UTC https://padlet.com/savannahdenis03/e65l60a8o6qx/wish/416246402 savannahdenis03 https://padlet.com/savannahdenis03/e65l60a8o6qx/wish/416439885 The purpose of the first excerpt was to condemn the way women are trying to get their rights. The person feels that it goes against the Declaration of Independence and wants for women to know that they should be doing their duties at home instead. However in the the second excerpt, it was written in order to show how men think they are major factors in a woman's role and how women don't need to back down to the standard forms of 6000 years ago and they are a labor in this world. ]]> 2019-11-26 00:03:30 UTC https://padlet.com/savannahdenis03/e65l60a8o6qx/wish/416439885 savannahdenis03 https://padlet.com/savannahdenis03/e65l60a8o6qx/wish/416441128 National identity was increasingly found in expressions of works of war, literature, and architecture. A new national culture emerged combining American elements, European influences, and religion sensibilities. Liberal social ideas from abroad and Romantic beliefs in human perfectibility influenced literature, art, and architecture. ]]> 2019-11-26 00:09:25 UTC https://padlet.com/savannahdenis03/e65l60a8o6qx/wish/416441128
