Again, it's important to understand (1) what it meant to be a Progressive and (2) howimportant historical context is when talking about the past. As we move towards WWI, Iwant to pause again just to make sure that this lesson is understood. We unfortunatelydidn't have enough time to fully explore the Progressives so that's what we're going todo!

Here's your task: select ONE of the following Progressives from the list below andexplain what made them progressive for their time. Be sure to give me the historicalcontext in which they lived, what exactly they wanted to change about society, how theytried to change society, and tell me if they were successful in their attempts and/or howthey fell short:

● Ida B. Wells-Barnett● Alice Hamilton● John R. Commons● Julia Lathrop● Florence Kelley● Louis D. Brandeis● Walter Rauschenbusch● Eugene V. Debs● Ida Tarbell● Lugenia Hope● Mary Parker Follett● W.E.B. Du Bois● Booker T. Washington

Because we couldn't discuss these Progressives in lecture, you'll have to do just a littlebit of outside research. And by "research", I mean Google it, it's not actual researchingI'm asking you to do, it's okay. I don't expect anything big and detailed like an essay, Ijust want you to get acquainted with a particular Progressive. This also means that Iallow the use of Wikipedia. But DON'T YOU DARE copy and paste– please provide thelink for every single source you use at the bottom of your assignment. Cite every sourceyou use. I don't care about the format or how you do it, just be sure to give credit.

Please answer the questions above in a short answer format, much like you did for theCivil War assignment.
