  1. During the periods of Reconstruction, industrial expansion, and the Progressive movement, South Carolina searched for ways to revitalize its economy while maintaining its traditional society. 8-5.5 8-5.6 8-5.7 8-5.8

  2. 8-5.5 Compare industrial development in South Carolina to industrialization in the rest of the United States, including the expansion of railroads, the development of the phosphate and textile industries, and immigration.

  3. Key Vocabulary • Transcontinental railroad • New South • Mill villages • Textiles • Labor movement • Strikes • Unions • phosphates

  4. Key Concepts • Following the American Civil War, the United States, especially the northeast and the Midwest, became progressively industrial. The railroad and immigrant labor played a key role in the industrial growth of these areas.

  5. South Carolina’s planter elite discouraged the development of industry on the basis of tradition and politicians did little to invite industry to the state.

  6. Eventually, due in part to cities that developed as railroad hubs, South Carolina did become more industrial producing textiles with its ready supplies of cotton. Farmers who could no longer make a living on the land became mill workers. • Mill workers were treated as second class citizens, young children were employed, wages low and working condition quite dangerous.

  7. Phosphate mining provided the state some wealth as it is a key component in fertilizer. However, this venture was short lived when rich deposits were found in Florida.

  11. Key Concepts • Farmers struggled to make a profit across the United States due to over production and foreign competition. Farmers also were underrepresented politically.

  13. South Carolina segregated their farmer’s organizations; the White Farmer’s Alliance and the Colored Farmer’s Alliance.

  14. Charleston Earthquake Lesson- • Students will analyze primary sources and create a plan of action for dealing with the earthquake and a newspaper headline covering the Charleston Earthquake. http://library.sc.edu/blogs/academy/files-/2011/08/After-the-Storm-8-5.5.pdf • Ben Tillman Palmetto Special ETV: http://scetv.org/education/emedia/guides/The%20Palmetto%20Special/lesson26.pdf

  17. Key Concepts • Immigration had a tremendous impact on the cities of the northeast and the Midwest. • Foreign immigrants did not come to South Carolina in large numbers. • Both immigrants and African Americans experienced racial hostility. The idea of Social Darwinism gave whites an intellectual justification for white supremacy. • African Americans moved in large numbers from the farms in the south to factory jobs in the north.
