Manifest Destiny was largely led and carried out by white americans seeking the westward expansion to increase the boundaries of the United States. African Americans were impact largely because as westward expansion continued new states were brought into the union with legalized slavery in places like Texas. This had an overall negative impact on African Americans by increasing the demand for slavery and expanding the institution of slavery westward.
