How progressive was the Progressive Era in American history?

Things to consider (choose some, not all!):

* Workers & Working Conditions?

* Civil Liberties?

Make sure that you take a stand and establish a judgement, comparison in relation to a specific standard.

The progressive Era was a time period that initiated reformity throughout the United States by industrials, the progressive advocated lying upon economic, political and social reforms. Throughout the years, the movement remained really successful due to the local level of society, then after progressed through different states and became something many socities misbehave towards nationally. The Progressive era was obtained by reformers that were inside the middle class bracket and higher. Within the progressive era bracket my main arguments lied upon Civil rights, imperialism, and workers & working conditions.

What I have to say is that behind the scenes, the workers & working conditions were horrible treated by waging standards and lack of education by family income means getting in minors lives'. Many workers started young and the only think they knew was to get instant income because they knew that money spoke everywhere, even though many bosses knew that they cheated out their workers, workers were defense less due to no education.

The last issue that was fought throughout was imperialism and basically that established with continental countries that all fought with wanting take a piece of power and extending it long ways to own 3rd world countries like Africa because it was known to having a many natural resources. This issue established moments like the Boxer Rebellion, the panama canal, and Spanish- American war.

In the civil rights movement, the regulations were placed different such as the African American society had to flow with many other individual of not owning rights by color and many individuals had to restrain their votes from polls, also the White American society seen the black society as a property to them for example many black maids.

As you can see that these issues that happened way before acted upon through a tough situation of how progressive the era was back then and there will never be something so chaotic how this was and made a trademark in history.
