  1. The Erie Canal provided New England families a way to the “promised land” of Michigan.  It was completed in 1825 and was the second longest canal in the world.  It cut across 363 miles the land connecting the Atlantic Ocean water traffic thru the Hudson River to the Great Lakes.  The ease of moving trade goods and passengers boosted the economy of New York, New York City, and the United States. By 1837 the Erie Canal provided affordable transportation that, “it seemed as if all New England were coming” according to one earlier pioneer.

  1. In 1829 the city of “Jacksonburgh” was founded as “Jackson” named after Andrew Jackson the president soon-to-have his portrait on the new $20 bill.  It was the Birthplace of the Republican Party and a strong-hold of supporters of the Union leading up to the Civil War.  Two years after joining the Union in 1893 and just after the end Civil War Jackson was the site for the first state prison.

  1. Native Americans started mining copper in Michigan thousands of years ago. Some artifacts made of copper found in the Mediterranean can be traced back to Michigan resources.  During the early 1840s these ancient mines were rediscovered in the Keweenaw Peninsula by settlers along Lake Superior who found copper tools and mining pits.  Experienced Cornish miners supervised the mining operations and soon Michigan became the leading U.S. supplier of copper and iron ore.  The demand for these natural resources encouraged the building of the Soo Locks that were completed in 1855.

  1. Michigan’s rich New England Yankee heritage made the state unique among frontier states in the Antebellum period (the period after the War of 1812 and the beginning of the Civil War).  Michigan Yankee inhabitants led the crusade against slavery during the reforms of the 1840s 1850s.  Michigan continued to be a frontier culture until the start of the Civil War.

  1. In 1850 anti-slavery activists and those persons that believed that western lands should be given to all new settlers free from any government charges “Freesoilers”, held the first meeting of the Republican Party in Jackson.  Some of these anti-slavery abolitionists were members of the Whig, Know-Nothing, and Democratic parties that were dissatisfied with their parties directions.  Within ten years this “Yankee” party, later nicknamed the GOP “Grand Old Party”, was a majority in Michigan and it dominated politics from the Civil War until the 1960s.

  1. Democrats had always used equalitarianism “a school of thought that prioritizes equality for all people, maintain that all humans are equal in fundamental worth or social status.”  They had always used this political tactic to attack the rich elitist Whigs Party.  Michigan Democrats were charged by the Republicans that their party “was in bed” with the South’s “slave power aristocrats,” thus pulling the rug out from under them.

  1. In 1861 there was an awe-inspiring outpouring of patriotism in the cities of Grand Rapids and Niles whipping up enthusiasm for the war in all segments of society, political, religious, ethnic, and occupational groups.  These communities sent thousands of volunteers off to fight in the American Civil War.  They were among the first to be mustered into the 1st Michigan Infantry and over the course of the war sent 90,000 men, 1, 600 black soldiers to join the Union Army.  By 1862 the enthusiasm faded with each casualties list that was made available to the public.  The focused on the war became more on freeing the slaves and preserving the Union.

  1. October 29, 1929, “Black Tuesday,” the stock market crashed and it began The Great Depression which brought to an end to the era of extraordinary uneven prosperity.  This calamity had been fermenting for years.  By 1933 over 5,000 banks had gone out of business and 25% of Americans were unemployed.  Michigan was hit harder than other states because of its economy was dependent to its industrial manufacturing.

  1. During the Great Depression of the 1930s there was sharp drop off of manufacturing production resulting in the failing companies laying off workers and as a result consumer spending and investment was significantly reduced.  Thousands of auto workers were dismissed when their manufacturing jobs were terminated triggering severe financial hardship for the state of Michigan.

  1. The French first settled the Upper Peninsula based on the fur trade and it was continued by the British and the Americans and it was controlled by the Native American population.  During the 1840s with the discovery of copper and iron ore in the Upper Peninsula the population climbed sharply.  The growth of mining supported workers of its associated industries like engineers, specialists, mill workers, transportation ship and rail, and necessary laborers.

  1. The Copper County strike of 1913 triggered a decline of the mining in the Upper Peninsula.  Migrant miners started leaving the uncertain turmoil and harder working conditions for other mining areas around the country.  Striking miners were black-balled from any future work and forced to seek employment in their trade in other states.

  1. In the 1930s Michigan’s copper reserves were depleted to only deep rock mining in the Upper Peninsula.  Local mines production was greatly reduced with the lower grade ore that was harder to get to.  Michigan miners could not compete with other states that had mining copper in less deep rock layers. Experienced miners understood that the copper would not last forever, the quality of what was being mined was not the better grade ore, and it would cost much more to mine it.

Roosevelt offered a New Deal to stabilize the economy and bring back prosperity to Americans.  He quickly stabilized the economy by providing new jobs and assistance to those who were struggling.

  1. In 1941 the United States was forced into World War II with a surprise attack by Japan on American soil at the navel base in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. The immediate need for military goods rejuvenated the manufacturing industries in Michigan as their plants went all ahead full in production of war materials.  Workers were needed to fill the new jobs that were created as automobile factories were quickly converted over to large-scale production of weapons and military vehicles.    Michigan becomes the “arsenal of democracy”.   The automotive manufacturing industries resumed normal production after the end of WWII in 1945 and there was an increase of mining operations.

  1. But in Detroit it was known as the “Long hot summer of 67”.   In the early 1960s manufacturing production was reduced due to de-industrialization and reorganizing the plants which caused the loss of many jobs.  The week local economy forced the city to suspend needed changes and to overlook social problems and growing racial unrest.  Hostilities broke out between law enforcement and the black residents into the 12th Street riot on Sunday July 23rd.   Police raided an illegal bar in the African American community triggering protests and fierce confrontations across the city.  The U.S Army was call on to stop the riot that burned out the inner city and left 43 persons died.  The anger and violent protesting exploded in other Michigan cities like Grand Rapids, Flint, and Jackson.  The racial tension was felt across the nation, but it was the bloodiest in Detroit.  What followed was a mass migration from the inner cities to the suburbs.
