4. John Louis O'Sullivan
newspaper writer
wrote about the idea of
Manifest Destiny
in 1845.

5. “America is destined for better deeds. We have no interest in the scenes of
antiquity, only as lessons of avoidance of nearly all their examples. The
expansive future is our arena, and for our history. We are entering on its
untrodden space, with the truths of God in our minds, beneficent objects in
our hearts, and with a clear conscience unsullied by the past. We are the
nation of human progress, and who will, what can, set limits to our onward
march? Providence is with us, and no earthly power can. We point to the
everlasting truth on the first page of our national declaration, and we
proclaim to the millions of other lands, that “the gates of hell” –the powers
of aristocracy and monarchy –“shall not prevail against it. Who, then, can
doubt that our country is destined to be the great nation of futurity?”

131. Chief Joseph of the Nez Perce Indians

132. am tired of fighting.
Our chiefs are killed.
It is cold, and we have no blankets.
The little children are freezing to death.
My people, some of them, have run away to the hills, and have
no blankets, no food.
No one knows where they are—perhaps freezing to death.
I want to have time to look for my children, and see how many
of them I can find.
Maybe I shall find them among the dead.
Hear me, my chiefs! I am tired.
My heart is sick and sad.
From where the sun now stands, I will fight no more forever.
Chief Joseph of the Nez Perce Indians

135. "Global warming, immigration,
deportation and modern development
are forcing some to be pushed out
while others are moving in….People are
migrating and moving all around the
world, our wide open spaces are
decreasing with buildings and factories
increasing, animals and plants are
being driven out by other non-natives
and our climate is drastically
changing.”
Migration continues to reshape the
American West —through the
movement of people, plants, animals
and ideas. The West may not represent
progress, but it does represent
constant flux. And these days, the
biggest driver of change is not the
desire for progress, but the challenge
of a chaotic climate and the movement
of people, from communities ignored
or maligned by Gast’swork. The West is
becoming a place of heat and cruelty,
where families are torn apart and
farmworkers wither in the fields, even
as researchers desperately seek ways
to save diminishing ecosystems. It
doesn’t have to be, however. A better
West is upto us.
