1 The Progressives Respond
2 Progressives Social and political reformers of the early 1900s Committed to: 1. improving conditions in American life 2. promoting social welfare 3. protecting the environment 4. making government more efficient and democratic
3 The Origins of Progressivism Government not responsible for addressing these issues The progressives became activists: a person dedicated to the cause of reform and prepared to use political action toward that goal The progressives were inspired by two reform movements of the late 1800s: Populist Movement (political movement) Social Gospel (a religious movement of the late 1800s based on the idea that social reform and Christianity go hand in hand)
4 Progressives Challenge Social Darwinism Progressives argued that domination by the rich and powerful was a distortion of democracy Most Americans were harmed when monopolies controlled the economy and corrupted politics Believed that government should play an active role in defending the political and economic rights of average citizens against the power of big business Wanted government to promote social reforms to clean up the cities and help those in need
5 Social Reforms
6 Improving Living Conditions in Cities New York passed the Tenement House Act in 1901: This law required each new tenement to be built with a central courtyard and to have a bathroom in each apartment In New York, the Department of Street Cleaning took charge of garbage collection. Their collectors were called the White Wings because they wore clean, white uniforms By cleaning up unhealthful conditions, Riis said, the White Wings "saved more lives in the crowded tenements than a squad of doctors."
7 Child Labor (2 Slides) Child laborers could not attend school Florence Kelley was a founder of the National Child Labor Committee: a progressive organization formed in 1904 to promote laws restricting or banning child labor By 1912, the committee had convinced 39 states to pass child labor laws Prohibited children under age 14 from working Some limited the number of hours that older children could work Progressives believed immigrant schoolchildren should assimilate into American society
8 Child Labor (cont.) Wanted to reform the criminal justice system and identify and address the causes of juvenile delinquency Judge Ben Lindsey of Denver, Colorado believed juvenile offenders were basically good but that their surroundings led them astray and if their living environment were improved, delinquency would disappear Lindsey and other progressives advocated creating a separate court system for juveniles In 1905, only about 10 states had juvenile courts and by 1915, all but two states had them
9 Improving Working Conditions In 1908, the Supreme Court ruled in Muller v. Oregon that states could limit work hours for women "As healthy mothers are essential to vigorous offspring," the Court ruled, "the physical well-being of woman is an object of public interest...[and] does not conflict with the due process or equal protection clauses of the Fourteenth Amendment."
10 Women s Suffrage Women had demanded the right to vote as early as 1848, when a group of 300 women and men met at the Seneca Falls Convention National American Woman Suffrage Association: a group formed by leading suffragists in the late 1800s to organize the women's suffrage movement, or NAWSA (led by Elizabeth Stanton) By 1918, women had voting rights in 15 states influence elections In Montana, they helped elect Jeannette Rankin to the House of Representatives in 1916 (four years before women had the right to vote nationwide) Rankin was the first woman to serve in Congress
11 African Americans Struggle for Equality Early 1900s, four fifths of African Americans lived in the South, where Southern blacks had literacy tests, poll taxes, etc. Tuskegee Institute: a vocational college for African Americans in Alabama, founded by Booker T. Washington National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP): a group formed in 1909 to fight through the courts to end segregation and ensure that African American men could exercise voting rights under the Fifteenth Amendment, and protested lynching and other racist violence One of the founding members of the NAACP was W. E. B. Du Bois, and Ida B. Wells-Barnett, spoke out against lynching but the federal government did not pass any laws against lynching
