Migration

Throughout our nation's history, important migrations or movements of people with in the united states have occurred. these migrations have had a significant impact on both the people who moved and on American society. there were plenty of difficulties because of the migrations, and there were plenty of different reason for migrating, such as water shortage or farming space or even food, and jobs.

Americans and European immigrants wanted to live in the west for a lot of reasons. most of the people was hoping they could start new, beginning a new life. others wanted to own their own farms, and be their own bosses. they wanted to move to the west because in the east all these thins were becoming difficult to accomplish.

Many African Americans known as the "Exodusters" migrated to the western lands. Many migrated to escape the violence and exploitations that followed the Reconstruction's, after the Civil War. Many came to the west with very little to their name. Even after some found jobs, only a few had enough to support a family. Even though the Exodusters anted to escape racial hatred most couldn't. even though the Exodusters went through a lot of difficult times with farming skill and such, they still manage to make a better life for them and their families. Also they met with better treatment than they had received in the South.

in conclusion most people migrate because they either want a new and better life, or they just need a new and better job to support their families. Some just want to be treated equally or even better. even though sometimes none of this happen for most of the people, usually they still end up happy because in the end they know they did something to better themselves, and their loved ones.
