Progressive Social Reformers What were the attitudes of Progressive social reformers towards immigrants?

Read Document A…Textbook excerpts on the Social Gospel & settlement houses at the turn of the century. What was the Social Gospel movement? How did settlement houses reflect the ideas of the Social Gospel movement? Describe the people serviced by settlement houses. Based on the textbook, how do you think European immigrants at the turn of the century viewed the social reformers like Jane Addams? Document A

Some Background: Many of the social reformers during the Progressive Era were U.S. born, white, middle-class, Protestant, college-educated women. Some historians have characterized these social reformers as generous women who wanted to assist the poor. Other historians have characterized them as condescending and elitist people who wanted to make immigrants become more Christian and American.

The Question: what were the attitudes of Progressive social reformers towards immigrants? Some of you will argue: Progressive social reformers were generous and helpful. Progressive social reformers were condescending and judgmental.

Read through documents B-E and find at least THREE examples of evidence supporting the following statement: Those of you assigned the #1: Progressive social reformers were generous and helpful. Those of you assigned the #2: Progressive social reformers were condescending and judgmental. Documents B-E

Discussion: What consensus did groups reach? What were the arguments for each side? If you were thinking about how YOU might have felt in this situation…how might attitudes have differed back then? Based on these documents, what are some laws and organizations that we have today that came out of the Progressive Era?
