Manifest Destiny. Native American Displacement | US-Mexican War

Manifest Destiny. Native American Displacement. There is an interesting symbolic portrayal of Manifest Destiny that shows "Columbia," the great American angel or woman, floating over the plains. Ahead of her, in the West, is a great darkness populated by wild animals. There are bears and wolves and Indian people, who are fleeing her light.
