John Gast, an American artist, believed that U.S. expansion in the 1800s was justifiable as it represented a divine destiny for the nation, often encapsulated in the term "Manifest Destiny." He viewed the expansion as a means to spread democracy, civilization, and economic opportunity across the continent. In his famous painting "American Progress," Gast depicted this ideology by illustrating the movement of settlers and the advancement of technology, suggesting that such growth was both natural and necessary for the progress of society. This belief often overlooked the displacement and suffering of Indigenous peoples and other groups affected by expansion.
