The California Gold Rush was the capstone of American westward expansion in the nineteenth century and fulfilled its Manifest Destiny. In this History For Humans for kids episode, students learn the amazing story of how the discovery of gold at Sutter's Mill led to one of the largest migrations in American history- how to it some to fortune but many to failure!
Students learn about the forty-niners, their difficult journeys by boat or overland by ox-driven wagon, their struggles and adventures between 1848-1853 when the Gold Rush was at its height. The story is a classic aspect of the American Dream and students are left considering how this event shaped the people who lived through it and the nation itself!
