USA main page Search Essential information The US has a population of about 281m people, drawn from a wide range of racial backgrounds. Native Americans have lived there since before Columbus 'discovered' it, nationalities from across the globe immigrated there, drawn by dreams of a land of plenty, and large numbers of Africans and others were forcibly brought there. Proud of its reputation as a melting pot, many of its most famous figures originally came from elsewhere - Samuel Goldwyn, Sidney Poitier, Madeleine Allbright and Frank Capra, to name but a few. It is, however, fairly insular-looking, and its citizens are often only just about aware of what's going on in their state, let alone the rest of the world. With a patriotic spirit that would seem not quite cricket in other parts of the globe, people take their country with an incredible seriousness; visitors should never mock the Stars and Stripes (remember Sinead O Connor?).

But for us seniors, with our more flexible schedules, Fall is the beginning of one of the two best seasons to visit Europe. Airfares and crowds are down, and for now, the U.S. dollar is up, an unbeatable combination. Airfares, of course, are impossible to predict. But at this time of the year, you usually can find at least one fare war for fall and winter travel. Expect round-trip, weekday rates to be somewhere in the $300s from the East Coast, the high $400s or low $500s from the West, with intermediate values from the Midwest and South. Keep your eyes open for promotions. Some of this year's best deals have been air hotel packages, and expect to see them continue for the fall. For example, you could buy a package to London, including round-trip air plus six hotel nights, starting at $399 from New York, $519 from Chicago, and $549 from the West Coast, per-person double occupancy, plus the usual taxes and fees.

The first settlers fled persecution in their homelands to make a new life for themselves in an unknown continent and amidst a landscape that was at times unforgiving. As more and more people looked for the promise of a better life, the population pushed further west until eventually the U.S. spanned the length of a continent from shore to shore. In the early 1900s, immigrants, filled with the same promise of equality and prosperity as the settlers before them, saw their first glimpses of the Statue of Liberty as they sailed toward Ellis Island and continued to populate U.S. cities. The driving forces of liberty and equality have not always pushed the nation in the right direction. Along the way, the U.S. has struggled to come to terms with its diversity, and the very ideals that shaped the nation were withheld for some. Native Americans fought to preserve their lands and their traditions, women had to demand their right to vote, and African Americans rebelled against the injustice of their servitude. These voices and many others are still being heard today, and the dialogue continues as the nation searches for new ways to foster equality and recognize diversity.

What Other Sources Tell Us Mimbres Black-on-white pottery, from southwest New Mexico, dates from A.D. 11OO to 1250. Tanque Verde Red-on-brown, pottery made by the Hohokam nearby, dates from A.D. 1200 to 1400. Fairbank Plainware, another pottery made by the Hohokam, dates from A.D. 1200 to 1400. Whetstone Plainware, pottery made by the Pima nearby, dates from A.D 1500 to 1700. Sobaipuri Plainware, the predominant local pottery found at Santa Cruz, was probably made by the Pima. In the prehistoric period, shells were obtained from the Pacific coast and the Gulf of California, while in the historic period, they may have been brought to Santa Cruz by Spanish Jesuits. Majolica, the predominant Mexican pottery found at Santa Cruz, was manufactured in Puebla, Mexico, from A.D. 1750 to 1800 and was brought in by settlers. Green lead glazeware, used for olive jars, was made in Seville and Cadiz in Spain and was the only artifact at Santa Cruz of definite Spanish origin. According to historic records, the church at Santa Cruz was used for five years, A.D. 1775-1780.

Did you know Sacramento is the capital of California? This was the start of the California Gold Rush. Thousands of men rushed to California, and hundreds of mining camps were formed in the Sierra Nevada foothills. People were coming to California from all parts of the United States, Europe, Australia, and China. They came with the notion of striking it rich, and then returning to their families as wealthy people. Did you know the Chinese nicknamed California Gum Sann?

94. Learning For Sustainable Future - The West Coast Salmon Fisheries are drawn from government, industry, labour and native groups. In 1994, the Americanswant to change the rules of American coho off the west coast of Vancouver http://www.schoolnet.ca/learning/teacher/publications/salmon/sharing/content.htm

Teacher Centre: Publications The West Coast Salmon Fisheries Sharing the Resource Background of the Pacific Salmon Treaty, 1985 The controversial Treaty, signed [in 1985], is the result of a peculiar characteristic of the salmon. When they come out of West Coast rivers, some ineluctable force causes them to turn right and swim north. Millions of dollars in salmon enhancement programs spent in British Columbia ends up benefiting American fishers of the Alaska panhandle, while the British Columbia fishery, in turn, gains at the expense of commercial fishers in Washington and Oregon. Efforts to solve the problem of interceptions" have failed since 1936, when a treaty covering sockeye salmon was ratified. In 1957, Canada and the United States agreed to a treaty allowing a 50-50 split of sockeye and pink salmon in what became known as the convention area, the approaches to the Fraser River around the south end of Vancouver Island. As the 1970s wore on, the Americans became increasingly unhappy with Canadian catches of west coast chinook and coho salmon. Meanwhile, British Columbian fishers became upset that the Americans were allowed to take half the convention area catch without having to pay anything like half the costs. Negotiations were begun to bring about a comprehensive treaty covering interceptions along the entire West Coast. After 13 years of talks, it looked as though agreement could be reached in 1983, but Alaska, which, because of the salmon's peculiar migratory patterns had the most to lose, initially balked at signing. The treaty was signed in March 1985 only after it became apparent that already depressed stocks of chinook salmon would fall another ten to 20 per cent unless restrictions were imposed.

The door to the United States was open to all who wanted to come. Yet there were always Americans who resented and feared "foreigners" and doubted the nation's ability to absorb them. The reading below provides an overview of how U.S. immigration policy developed in the period from the formation of the republic to 1920. Top of Page The Period of the "Old" Immigration, 1790-1881 On the eve of the Revolution, the population of the colonies, though predominantly of English and African origin, represented several nationalities. There were large settlements of Scotch-Irish on the frontier. There were Welsh and Germans in Pennsylvania, Swedes in present-day Delaware, and Danes, Scots, Irish, and Finns in Philadelphia. The test of Americanism came to hinge on one's date of arrival. Older residents often viewed newcomers as intruders. In 1798 Congress bowed to popular pressure and passed the Alien and Sedition Act, which authorized the expulsion of foreigners considered a threat to the peace and safety of the United States. The act also extended residence requirements for naturalization (acquisition of citizenship) from 5 to 14 years.

96. Native Americans And The Environment http://www.indians.org/library/salmon.html

The Thriving of Wild Salmon by Simon Lucas (The following is a transcript of the remarks made by Simon Lucas who at the time of this speech was co-chair of the BC Aboriginal Fisheries Commission and the Nuu-chah-nulth Tribal Council. He was speaking to participants of the Suzuki Foundation's Wild Salmon conference held November 18th, 1988.) If you think about the quantities of fish and shellfish required to feed populations of this size, largely dependent on seafoods, you will soon see that our ancestors were harvesting more of the salmon resource and other resources than are being harvested today. If you went to our site, it would probably go twenty feet deep. You would be digging up nothing but whalebones, clamshells, fishbones. Obviously we had an effective management system to ensure that harvests of this size could be sustained. It's ludicrous to think that we had no plan... History shows us the interdependence between our communities and salmon stocks, as the decline of salmon stocks is exactly parallel to the decline and impoverishment of our communities. Four thousands of years until the last short 100 years we did not know of unemployment in our communities... The coming of fishing industries and other industries meant increasing unemployment in our communities. As the resource suffered, so have we. We can talk about many examples: Canadian Fish in Nootka Sound, a flourishing cannery. Nelson Bros. in Ceepeecee. Flourishing. A lot of our people were working. But somebody decided centralization was the answer to the economy. The vision which I have described to you must be based on clean rivers, estuaries and ocean waters, and on careful protection and management of wild salmon and salmon stocks. Here we must be careful on the words we use "wild" salmon used to mean wild spawning, wild parents, non-hatchery stocks. Since salmon farming has come to our coast, wild salmon has come to mean non-farm salmon, whether they were spawned in a hatchery or a river.

What's a Potlatch? Find out here! Use the cheat sheet to find just what you need! Cheat Sheet Introduction Daily Life Manners Furniture ... Make your own Totem Pole (out of paper) Didn't find what you needed? Try this! Have a great year! FAQs Introduction What was life like 2,000 years ago in what is now the Puget Sound region of Washington State? All of the west coast tribes were considered rich by the other Indian nations . Of all the coastal Indians, the Tulalip, Swinomish, Lummi and Skagit tribes were considered the most rich. These were the Indian tribes who lived in the Puget Sound area of Washington State. What made these tribes so wealthy? It wasn't the discovery of oil, although these early people did love to dunk their food in whale oil to give it flavor. It wasn't the discovery of gold or silver, although these early people were talented artists. They would have made gorgeous jewelry from gold and silver (if they had discovered gold or silver!) But, they did not use metal of any kind. They did not have gold statues or iron pots or brass weapons. What made them so rich and famous? Food! An abundance of food and safe, sturdy shelter made them famous. Two thousand years ago , the Puget Sound Indians used to tell visiting tribes that sometimes the river was so packed with salmon you could walk across it on the backs of fish without getting your feet wet. These early people were famous for their "tall tales" - but it was true that the waters were filled with of salmon. Clams were thick on the beaches. There was an abundance of all kinds of fish and seafood. The woods were full of elk and deer and other animals. There were blackberries and raspberries and salmonberries and nuts. Cedar trees were everywhere. The Indians used cedar to build their homes and to carve everything from canoes to eating utensils. Softened cedar bark was used to make shoes, clothing, blankets, toweling. You can see why other Indian tribes, struggling to survive in other parts of the country, would consider the Puget Sound Indians "rich"!
