Progressive movement quick summary


Discuss the Progressive movement in the United States during the late 1800’s and early 1900’s.  Be sure to discuss the role of reformers and presidents and the issues they addressed. Assess how successful they were in bringing about change.


Progressives have elements of Christianity, education, and middle class citizens; leans on the middle of communizing and capitalism. They begin with the specific agenda to clean up the nation’s cities. But it grew more than that it grew to political, social and educational reforms. Politicians of all kinds were careful to depict themselves as Progressives, even if their record showed them to be dyed-in-the-wool conservatives. The fact that such a wide array of political types claimed the Progressive label illustrates how powerful the Progressive impulse had become. Progressives sought to change the way Americans lived by crafting laws against what they saw as social wrongs. In addition to the many trust busting, tariff, and voting laws they advocated, progressives used  the courts to limit the number of hours women and children could work and to end the most brutal forms racial antagonism. They sometimes succeeded, as in the case of Muller V. Oregon in 1908 which upheld a law limiting the number of hours that women could work in a day but unsuccessful in passing child labor laws and in promoting a federal antilynching law. In the educational front Progressives were very successful. They helped build more schools and improved teacher education and salaries.  They argue that citizens needed to by well-educated to work better are there jobs and to participate in politics.

Labor Movement positive affect's on the Working Class!

Labor Movement Was a Positive Experience for the Working class
The life of the working family during the 19th century was tough. “In good times wages were low, hour’s long, and working conditions hazardous. Little of the wealth that the growth of the nation had generated went to its workers. Moreover, women and children made up a high percentage of the work force in some industries and often received but a fraction of the wages a man could earn.” There were also economic crises that lower the low pay of the industrial worker and let to higher unemployment. At the same time millions of immigrants that came to the country ready to work expanded increase the competition for wages. “At the same time, technological improvements, which added so much to the nation’s productivity, continually reduced the demand for skilled labor.” These conditions made it harder for the working family. Laborers movement made a positive impact to them by establishing an eight hour schedule; educate them, and abolishing child labor (Outline of U.S. History.)
The long 12 to 14 hours of work for each single day let too little leisure (The Knights of Labor.) The long working hours didn’t let the working families to self-develop and to enjoy their wages with their families (Outline of U.S. History.) The labor movement fought to shorten the hours of labor by a general refusal to work for more than eight hours (The Knights of Labor.) “Labor organizers believed that people who worked 12- and 14-hour days could not possibly develop their full potential as human beings — they could not educate themselves or appreciate the “finer things,” and they would be too tired and hard-worked to be moral people and good citizens (The Knights of Labor.) The achievement of this goal came slowly with a 10 hour schedule until 1930s when the federal government became actively and Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 which limited the work day to 8 hours. This lead to, “to secure to the worker the full enjoyment of the wealth they create, sufficient in which to develop their intellectual, moral and social faculties; all of the benefits, recreation and pleasures of association; in a word, to enable them to share in the gains and honors of advancing civilization” (The Knights of Labor). Later on The People’s Party secure this right by demanding enforcement (People’s Party Platform 332)
The lives of the unskilled laborer which included most if the working family had a hard time paying there bill because of high social cost. Adding was that there wages were low because of high availability of unskilled workers. Dads that work on the steel industry would work for 12 hours didn’t have too much time and money to enjoy with his family. “Most industrial workers still worked a 10-hour day (12 hours in the steel industry), yet earned less than the minimum deemed necessary for a decent life”. But unlike the unskilled worker the skilled laborer lived a good and decent life (Outline of U.S. History.) Education was the tool use by the labor movement to make the unskilled laborer into skill laborers. “Many early-twentieth-century labor and reform activists testified to the importance of the Knights in their early education.” “As a self-conscious microcosm of the society it was trying to build, the order ultimately extended its educational claims to the entire family.” Many Knights encouraged there members to take their education seriously. The Knights arrive to correct the financial condition by using the knowledge of education (Levine).
Child laborers made up a high percentage of work forces some industries. Children had lower wages than men did but they both did the same hours and they would also work around dangerous equipment. Children were view has cheap labor because they work the same hours a men and got pay less than them. “The number of children in the work force doubled between 1870 and 1900” (Outline of U.S. History). A chill that works in the mill would work for eleven hours a day setting on a high stool with dangerous machinery around him. They would work, “All day long, winter and summer, spring and fall, for three dollars a week.” Many of them could barely read or write because they work long hours in industries.” Every day little children came into Union Headquarters, some with their hands off, some with the thumb missing, some with their fingers off at the knuckle. They were stooped things, round shouldered and skinny.”    In the march of the mill children carried banners that said, “We want more schools and less hospital.” (The Autobiography of Mother Jones) The labor movement came with the goal to abolish this harmful act that was committed to the working family children’s (Powderly 318). Not every child suffers this calamity they had happiness but they were the minorities. The labor movement wanted to change that and make it that all of the children are happy children and they use story of working children like the Mr. Coal’s Story to transmitted what is happening and make a law to abolish it. (EHistory) And it all ends with the fair labor standards act of 1938 (The Knights of Labor).

Bumps in the Journey


Two years have passed since I begged desperately to my dad to buy me a guitar. I remember him looking me in the eyes with a serious face saying that he would buy it when he got enough money but the day never came. Sadly every time I asked him he would come up with an excuse, I got to pay bills he would say, I got to pay deb he would claim or ask me next, next, week because I am busy today. My constant pleading had caused me discomfort too ask him about this subject, a feeling of neglect had overcome me. I saw checks coming in and out of the house in the biggest amount I had ever saw. My father had the bills of the poor but the checks of the rich..
My maternal mother notices my distress and came to me with her cure my neglect. Her uplifting words lifted my spirit and her vow to take matters on her own hands broad me hope. The discomfort that had been brought out from the neglects that my father gave to my begging’s’ has change by the promise that my dear mother made to me. But the same pattern that happen with my father started to happen with my mother and my hopes started to die out. I didn’t even bother to ask when she was going to come true with the promise.
Already five months have passed since the promise was made and by this time I had lost all hope, I told it was never going to be. While suddenly a get a big surprise. The hero of the story had called me out to the kitchen where she had a big present, it was not cake but it was delicious to my eyes. There she unveils the long and anticipated guitar that I wanted badly.  Then when I realize that this was not a dream I suddenly became emotional has a chilled in Christmas. I jump up and down and rush to my mother to give her the thanks that she deserves. On the way to her I felt because my shoes where untie and while I was going face to the ground I saw everything in slow motion.  I broke my nose and my mother got a good laugh out of it but that didn’t stop me from collecting my prize and giving her a kiss of appreciation.
Then I grab the guitar, got into a playing position and started to play it. It sounded like a dying cat. The sound had the Goosebumps affect and its’ terrible sound made my hears cried like crying children. So I quickly stop playing and shortly after I stare at my mother with the most uncomfortable look that I had given to anybody. After ten awkward seconds she started to explain to me what happen; took like twenty minutes to explain.
In short her story was that she bought it in a yard sale for twenty bucks and that it took so long to get it because she couldn’t find one. I got angry and unreasonable. Then I gab the broken guitar and I slam it into the floor. Parts of the guitar spread to the room. I felt good and I quickly became relax and I said that it was it was twenty dollars well spend. My mother replays that it’s the last time she buys my guitar and I replay don’t worry next time I am doing the dirty work.

The Beginning of My Guitar Journey
Two years have passed since I begged on my knees to my dad to buy me a guitar. I remember him say with a serious face while he looked at my eyes that he would buy it when he got enough money from his self-employ job. Every time that he made his money he would come home and tell the whole family how much more money he is making now than his old job, more than enough to buy the guitar; at time I would remind him about the promises that he made to me about the  instrument. But sadly every time I asked him he would say that he cannot put money aside because he was going to need invested on his job, like buying a new truck. All I wanted was a middle class guitar that would cost around the three hundred dollar that had a classis gorgeous sun burn color made by reputable brands that knew what they were doing.
My father was not able to deliver a guitar to me, but my beautiful and loving mother saw my pain, sadness, and all my tears, and came to the rescue one day when she surprised me with a guitar when she came from her favorite hoppy that is yard selling. When she told me that she got me a guitar, my heart start to speed up, I started to jump a little and I had a big smile on my face. I almost cried a little. I excitedly said to myself, finally my guitar is here. I followed her to the kitchen where I saw a green guitar case which is a bit odd but nonetheless I graph its zipper and got the guitar out. The guitar had a nice classic sun burn color, it felt smooth and I felt in love with it has quick has a speeding Cheetah. But when I strum its’ stings my ears responded that with a big no to that love because it sound it like broken records. My smiles and happiness quickly fade after a heard that afoul sound that came out of my new guitar; I was felt devastated with tear coming out of my eyes. Then I inspected the guitar and I notice that the bridge of the guitar was broken, it was lifted up but some glue hold it together. When I said that it was broken my mother move back a little and her eyes open quickly and she told me with a shaking voice that she didn't notice when she bout it at a yard sale. I was sad that the guitar had the bridge broken but that didn't stop me from going online to get guitar classes and start practicing with it until the joy of playing guitar was more than the suffering of herring does ears trenching sounds.
I got tire of my old guitar so I decided to buy my own, after all that has happen I didn’t trust or wanted to wait until I had my kids. I got my mother to contact her friends to get me a job in this a factory; in the night shift and I was a picker. After a month of this factory live that consume me schedule which only made me enjoy two hours of my day I quite because it was time for me to start college. I made about seven hundred dollars menus the money I gave to my parents to help out with the bills; I had enough to my sun burn acoustic guitar.  I looked around online and found that amazon had what I need it, my precious guitar and at price that I liked; so I bought it.
After I click the place your order button I rapidly became anxious with a mixture of happiness that finally the long wait was going to be over soon. It also reminded me of the first two weeks that I was waiting for my dad to buy it for me. Finally after coming back from college I see a big dirty box in the front of my house, I had the face of a kid that is going to open his present in Christmas Eve. I take my keys out open the door hug the box and take it upstairs to my room to the left. With tears running off my face I open the box like if it was a birthdate present there I find what I wanted all along, my acoustic/electric with the classy look of the sun burn. I grab the neck of the guitar with my left hand, sat down, and I rested the guitar in my legs and made it sing like an angle; I said to myself with a big smile of my face, the wait is finally over!
