Living Essay about Progressivism

In class today I worked with Carson and Ben on our in class writes about Progressivism. We took our ideas (Gang Crimes, Black Sox Scandal, and the Invention of Radios) and research of those ideas to find a connecting theme about Progressivism and create a Living Essay about what we found.

Thesis:
 One of the major aspects of the progressive era was how the government began to make regulations and laws to make a better quality of life. Going from something as big as to prohibition all the way to something as small as the radio the government provided safety and better expectations for all.

Conclusion:
One of the major aspects of the progressive era was how the government began to make regulations and laws to make a better quality of life. Going from something as big as to prohibition all the way to something as small as the radio the government provided safety and better expectations for all. From the crimes created by gangs to the Black Sox Scandal to the inventions of radios, people wanted there to be higher standards for society and for this to happen the government had to be involved by creating laws/regulations to insure that the standard was reached.
