Imperialism II Spanish American War

All the News That’s Fit to Print…or is it? “What you don’t know about Anti-Depressants can kill You!” “Icy Conditions Tomorrow will Endanger the Lives of Thousands of Commuters…so stay home…unless you must go out.” “We are under a blanket alert for a general threat.” (1)How does the media give us our news? (2)Can the media influence individuals? The politics of the nation?

AIM: Can the media influence Americans to go to war? Vocab Yellow Press NationalismRough Riders De Lome Letter Treaty of Paris Maine ExplosionPlatt Amendment Jingoism = intense nationalism with desire for adventure Essential Questions: How did the Yellow Press influence the country and our political leaders? Why would the U.S. participate in a War with Spain?

Treaties… Teller Amendment 1898 McKinley did not want to go to war – was afraid it would hurt the Wall Street Economy. Passed the Teller Amendment that said we wouldn’t interfere in Cuba after we won. (Liar!) Lasted only four months U.S. won—turned America into an imperial power Treaty of Paris 1900 – Spanish colonies of Puerto Rico, Guam, and Philippines belonged to US Cuba gained its independence – Cuba signed the Platt Amendment 1902 If Cuba wanted to have any treaties with other countries, it would have to ask America first. allowed America to intervene into Cuban affairs even during times of peace allowed America to keep navy ships in its bay (Guantanamo Bay).

"I should welcome almost any war, for I think this country needs one" – TR, Rough Riders Improved the U.S. Navy 4 months of fighting Success at the Battle of San Juan Many deaths – malaria, yellow fever, bad contaminated food “A splendid little War” – Sec of State, John Hays

Cartoon: “Uncle Sam Teaches a Class in Self-Government” In this political cartoon from shortly after the conclusion of the Spanish-American War in 1898, "Uncle Sam" disciplines a class of unruly "children," representing Cuba, the Philippines, Puerto Rico, and Hawaii. The mustachioed figure reading the book at left is General Maximo Gomez, the military commander in Cuba's War of Independence, while the figure wearing the "dunce cap" represents Filipino independence leader Emilio Aguinaldo. While sarcastic touches, such as the "Map of the United States and Neighboring Countries" in the background, suggest the cartoonist may not have entirely approved of the United States' imperial efforts, his work nonetheless exemplifies the paternalistic and racist stereotypes with which Americans of all political stripes tended to view those in the countries that came under U.S. influence at the time.

Cartoon: Uncle Sam Finds "Something Lacking" In New Possessions The outcome of the Spanish-American War had far-reaching consequences for several of Spain's former colonies. The United States annexed Puerto Rico, the Philippines, and Guam, while Cuba became independent but subject to American influence. This political cartoon from shortly before the conclusion of the war in 1898 reflects the pro-expansionist view, contrasting the benefits derived from American involvement by Puerto Rico (in a shiny new outfit marked "Annexation Suit from Your Uncle Sam") and Cuba (clutching bread and waving the flag of independence), with the uncertain status of the Philippines, depicted as mired in a primitive, "savage" condition. Typically, all three nations are depicted as children, dependent on a kindly and benevolent Uncle Sam.

"Showing the Light to the Filipinos” From 1898 to 1902, the United States waged a bloody war in the Philippines. Filipinos wanted independence from centuries of Spanish colonial rule. U.S. leaders, however, saw the opportunity to control the Philippines and gain access to markets in Asia. President McKinley argued that the Filipinos could not govern themselves or defend themselves against other countries. Many supporters of the Philippine-American war also believed in the "civilizing mission"—the idea that European nations and the United States had a moral duty to civilize "backwards" peoples in other parts of the world by introducing Western culture and technology.

McKinley was not initially in favor of going to war…
