A few tribes went peacefully, but many resisted the relocation policy. During the fall and winter of 1838 and 1839, the Cherokees were forcibly moved west by the United States government. Approximately 4,000 Cherokees died on this forced march, which became known as the "Trail of Tears." Library of Congress Research Guides

Some freed their slaves in Utah; others who went on to California had to emancipate them there." History to Go

Why the USA Is So Huge 🇺🇸 From 13 Colonies to 50 States 🤯 0:59

  • https://www.youtube.com/shorts/yNKTjkGzEZA Apr 5, 2025 How did the USA go from just 13 colonies to one of the biggest countries on Earth? 🌎 In only 100 years, the United States expanded 11 times its original size! 🤯 It all began in 1776, when the colonies declared independence from Britain 🇬🇧. After winning the Revolutionary War, they gained land up to the Mississippi River through the Treaty of Paris 📜 Then came a giant leap — the Louisiana Purchase from France 🇫🇷 which doubled the country’s size 🧩 Florida 🌴 was taken partly by force and partly bought from Spain 🇪🇸. Texas broke away from Mexico 🇲🇽 and joined the U.S., triggering the Mexican-American War ⚔️ — which brought the entire West under U.S. control 🌄 Mass migration along the Oregon Trail led to a deal with Britain, setting the northern border at the 49th parallel 📍. And finally, a purchase from Russia added Alaska ❄️ — the last massive piece of the continental puzzle. GeoGlobeTales

200 years on the Erie Canal 7:49

  • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iLfGSXuHu5g Jul 9, 2017 Two hundreds years ago, construction began on a 363-mile canal linking the Great Lakes to the Hudson River and New York City - an engineering and commercial triumph as revolutionary as the Internet. But the Erie Canal was dismissed at first. New York politician DeWitt Clinton spent 10 years fighting to sell the project to a deeply skeptical public, and Presidents Jefferson and Madison refused to help fund it. Yet the canal quickly changed the geography and commerce of the young nation. Richard Schlesinger reports on the history of the Erie Canal, still celebrated in song as an example of American ingenuity.  CBS Sunday Morning

Why are beavers obsessed with dams? - Glynnis Hood 4:44

  • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9_AuKM7S6TU Jan 5, 2023 Explore how beavers build their impressive dams, and what impact these structures have on the surrounding environment. -- Nestled in the forests of Canada sits the world’s longest beaver dam. This 850-meter-long structure is large enough to be seen in satellite imagery and has dramatically transformed the region, creating a pond containing 70 million liters of water. But dams of any size can have huge impacts on their environment. So how exactly do beavers build these impressive structures? Glynnis Hood investigates.

The American West 01 - The Road to Pine Ridge (1840-1890) - from Timelines.tv 7:34

  • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=53wPfADh_tA Jun 8, 2010 Black Elk, a holy man of the Lakota Sioux, remembers life on the Plains before the coming of the white man. (7.5 mins)  Black Elk described his life to the author John G. Neihardt in the early 1930s. In this module we hear Black Elk's account of his childhood, as published in Neihardt's book "Black Elk Speaks". It's an account of Lakota life back when the bison roamed the Plains - before the coming of the Wasichu, the 'pale faces'. And at the Pine Ridge reservation today, we witness a pow-wow - a glimpse of the old Lakota culture preserved in the heart of the modern USA. timelinesTV

(8 mins)  In 1846 a young journalist from Boston called Francis Parkman made a journey down the Oregon Trail, to experience the life of the Oglala Sioux. This module tells his story: how he made contact with the Oglala west of Fort Laramie, Wyoming; how he described the customs of the tribe; and how, feverish with excitement, he participated in an exhilarating Oglala ritual: the Great Buffalo Hunt. timelinesTV

(9.25 mins)  In 1848, the Hester family from Indiana embarked on an epic journey west by covered wagon to California. Their 14-year-old daughter Sallie wrote a diary describing the experience, and this module tells her story. It follows the Hesters across the Plains and over the treacherous Sierra Nevadas - past the place where the Donner Party met their grisly end just three years earlier. timelinesTV

The American West 04 - By Railroad to Nebraska (1872) - from Timelines.tv 8:19

  • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oLvlYmC8cw4 Jan 31, 2013 The letters of a homesteader couple describe the epic experience of the first white settlers on the Plains. (8.5 mins)  With the coming of the railroad, the settlement of the Great Plains began - a process believed by many to be the 'manifest destiny' of the American people, and facilitated by the promise of free land. But first, the homesteaders had to tame a forbidding landscape, and this was no easy task. The module follows the story of Uriah and Mattie Oblinger, whose letters, written in 1872-3, describe the creation of their 'sodhouse', a house made from the only material available: the matted roots of the prairie grass itself. timelinesTV

The Black Hills had been promised to the Lakota "as long as grass grows and the rivers flow" - but when an expedition led by Col. George Custer established the presence of gold in the hills, these promises to the Native Americans were soon broken. The module describes the experiences of Annie Tallent, one of the first prospectors to enter the hills, and the only woman amongst the Gordon Party of 1874. timelinesTV

(8 mins)  This module tells the story of the great cattle drives in the years after the American Civil War, when cheap southern beef was driven north out of Texas to the railheads of Kansas, to feed the cities in the North and on the eastern seaboard. Teddy Blue Abbott, a cowboy from those days, recalls the drover's life; he recalls how the trail became impassible once the homesteaders fenced off the Plains; and he recalls his last great drive, north to Montana, where he bought some land and exchanged the life of a drover for the life of a rancher. timelinesTV

Why are beavers obsessed with dams? - Glynnis Hood Think 

https://ed.ted.com/lessons/why-do-beavers-build-dams-glynnis-hood#review

1. What is the second largest rodent in the world?

2. What features of a stream make it a suitable location for beavers to build a dam?

3. How long can beavers hold their breath under water?

4. Why are beaver dams often concave in shape?

5. How long do the male and female beavers stay as a pair?

6. How long do beaver kits stay with their parents before dispersing to find their own territories?

7. What do beavers build to live in?

8. How does the presence of beaver dams help people the most?

9. Beavers change their environment to benefit their own success through a process called “ecosystem engineering”. What are some of the physical outcomes of their engineering activities, and how might these outcomes aid the success of other species and ecological processes as well?

10. During the global fur trade of the 16th to 19th century, both species were almost hunted and trapped to extinction both in Eurasia (for the Eurasian beaver) and North America (for the North American beaver). Both species have since made dramatic recoveries throughout much of their former ranges. How might the extinction of beavers throughout the northern hemisphere have altered biodiversity and ecological processes?

11. The term “ecosystem engineer” refers to a species that alters the physical aspects/structure of its environment. Many scientists also consider beavers to be a “keystone species”, which is a species that has a disproportionate effect on the entire ecosystem, particularly through food webs. If a keystone species is removed from a system, the whole system would likely collapse. How would the reintroduction of beavers into their previously occupied habitats influence other organisms in the food web? Which type of species might benefit the most?
