FOCUS QUESTION: What were the causes and effects of the Spanish-American War?

10 Cuba American Interest in Cuba (colony of Spain)
US invests $$$ in sugar cane plantations in Cuba The Second War for Independence 1895 Cuba, led by Jose Marti, fights Spain for independence; wants US to join their cause Mixed U.S. opinion – support Spain and keep investments safe or help Cuba win freedom?

11 Cause 1: Cuban Revolution Valeriano Weyler’s “Reconcentration” Policy
Weyler put Cubans who rebelled against Spanish control in Concentration Camps

12 Cause 2: Yellow Journalism
William Randolph Hearst’s New York Journal and Joseph Pulitzer’s New York World wrote exaggerated accounts of the fighting between Cuban rebels and Spanish They were in a competition to sell more papers than the other; wild headlines make Americans sympathize with Cubans

14 William Randolph Hearst
“Yellow Journalism” Joseph Pulitzer Hearst to Frederick Remington: You furnish the pictures, and I’ll furnish the war! William Randolph Hearst

15 Cause 3: The DeLomme Letter
Publication of a letter criticizing US President McKinley, written by Spanish diplomat (De Lomme) Called McKinley weak and stupid Hearst published letter under headline “Spain insults our President” Americans are furious about this insult!

16 Cause 4: The USS Maine Explodes
President McKinley ordered USS Maine to Cuba to bring home American citizens February 1898, ship blew up; 260 killed Nobody knew why the ship exploded, but American newspapers claim Spain did it
