In this video Heimler takes you through Unit 6 Topic 3 of the AP U.S. History curriculum which is set in period 6 (18651898).

According to Frederick Jackson Turner, westward migration was baked within the very DNA of Americans. And after the brief interruption caused by the Civil War, Americans began to migrate west yet again. Folks known as sodbusters established homesteads in the midwest thanks to the Homestead Acts.

And by 1890 the U.S. Census Bureau declared the frontier closed. And one major problem that came along with such a flurry of westward expansion is the clash with Indians who lived there. Their land in the Oklahoma Territory was further and further restricted by the reservation system. And while some Indians resisted through violent conflict (like the Sioux Wars) and symbolic action (like the Ghost Dance Movement), others submitted to assimilation to American culture.

If you have any questions, leave them below and Heimler shall answer forthwithly.

This video is aligned with the AP U.S. History Curriculum and Exam Description for Unit 6 Topic 3, and all the key concepts thereunto appertaining.
