The Populist and Progressive reformers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries brought about widespread changes to American politics, economics, and society. In this essay, we want you to consider the ethics and civics of the reformers. Describe THREE of the key reform movements of the Progressive era. Who were these reformers and what motivated them

Answers

Answer 1

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Three of the key reform movements of the Progressive era were the following. Reformation of the civil rights, reformation of the US federal government to end corruption acts, and reformation for the conservation of the environment.

These reformers were people such as W.EB. Du Bois, Theodore Roosevelt, and Robert La Follette.

What motivated them to initiate and support these reformation movements was the lofe for his country, the compassion they felt for other Americans, his spirit to do things right, to clean the government from corruption and corrupt politicians, and to improve the living conditions of the American society.

Let's get the proper context to understand the problems reformers faced to establish their reformations in the country.

During the Gilded Age, there was so much corruption that allowed the Robber Barons of America to create monopolies that destroyed small and medium-sized companies. We are talking about people like Jhon D. Rockefeller owner of the Standard Oil Company or Andrew Carnegie, owner of the American Steel Company, who grew to become the wealthiest men in the United States with their monopolies. They fought against the creation of labor unions and exploited their workers to make big profits.

Reformers had the conviction to fight and promote big changes in American society.

Muckrakers journalists exposed those corruption acts and progressive reformers demanded changes in the federal government legislation to reverse the situation.

Robert La Follette, governor of Wisconsin, reformed taxes, elections, invested in railroads, and created his program "Wisconsin Idea," to invite people from Wisconsin to actively participate in politics.

W.EB. Du Bois was one of the most important civil rights activists of his time. He wrote "The Souls of Black folks" in 1903. and his ideas helped t form the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP).

US President Theodore Roosevelt was known as the greatest conservationist of America. He was so interested in protecting the environment, the wildlife, and the natural resources of the United States.

So these reformers had great convictions and dedicated his life to propose changes that impacted the way American people lived and made changes to had a long-lasting consequence in the way American was developing to become the strong nation it is.

Who were African-American workers?

Before the Civil War, African Americans are documented to have taken part in labor movements. African Americans dominated the caulking industry at the beginning of the nineteenth century, and there is evidence of a strike by black caulkers at the Washington Navy Yard in 1835.1 When making ships, caulking was crucial since without it, a ship couldn't be used because it would leak.

Ex-slaves had to adapt to freedom and a new labor system after the Civil War. There are millions of documents about this changeover at the National Archives. Fortunately, a multivolume documentary editing project called Freedom: A Documentary History of Emancipation is available to academics.

Answers

Answer: Excerpt A

Explanation:

Baron de Montesquieu believed that it was necessary to separate the powers of government into three separate branches in order to avoid corruption. He believed the Legislative should make laws, the Executive should enforce those laws and the Judiciary should solve disputes related to wars.

This is what is shown by this excerpt which is based on Article I, Section 1 of the U.S. Constitution. Congress (Legislative) makes laws, the President has executive power and the Supreme Court has Judicial power.

Answers

Answer: Positive and negative effects of Industrial Revolution

Explanation:

The Industrial Revolution saw an increase in the efficiency of technology and thus allowed for goods to be produced faster and in larger quantities which led to goods being cheaper. Transportation and communication also became faster as modes of transport like Railroads gained momentum and there was a rise in the standard of living.

However, there were dangerous working conditions in factories where people would toil for long hours with low pay. So many people moved from the rural areas to the urban areas in search of jobs which led to overcrowded urban areas.  

This excerpt therefore shows the advantages and disadvantages of the Industrial Revolution.

D. Think of them as the judge that decides if a law is right or wrong and whether it can be passed

The judicial branch determines whether a law passed by a state legislature may stand or not . Thus, option (D) is the correct answer.

What is the roles of a judicial branch?

Article III of the Constitution, which established the Judicial Branch, gives Congress broad authority to shape and govern the federal courts. The number of Supreme Court Justices is entirely up to Congress.  Congress passes and the President signs federal laws.

The judicial branch decides whether federal laws are constitutional and settles other legal problems. However, judges rely on the executive department of our government to enforce court decisions. Courts determine what actually occurred and what action should be taken.

Therefore, the role of the judicial branch in  making public policy is to determine whether a law passed by a state legislature may stand or not.
