The Struggle Against Discrimination Chapter 8 Section 3

Progressivism Contradicts Itself Progressive Era was not so progressive for nonwhites and immigrant Americans

Americanization “How do we change them?” Settlement Houses Taught them how to dress Change customs Use of alcohol was frowned upon Scientific theories claim that dark skinned people were less intelligent then whites

Plessy v. Ferguson Homer Plessy refused to move to “colored” cart while riding train in Louisiania He was 1/8 black, 7/8 white, but was still considered African American Argued that his rights under 13th and 14th Amendment were violated Supreme Court upheld the “separate, but equal”

Demands for Reforms New movements arose to help fight against discrimination Niagara Movement NAACP Urban League

Niagara Movement Leading African American thinkers met at Niagara Falls in Summer of 1902 Led by W.E.B. DuBois and William Monroe Trotter The movement did not grow strong enough to fight against discrimination

NAACP National Association for the Advancement of Colored People Aimed to help African Americans with no forced labor, mental abuse, and physical abuse Leaders such as Jane Addams, Ray Stannard Baker, and Florence Kelley

Urban League Focused upon poor African American workers It helped families buy clothes and books and send children to school

Protection Anti-Defamation League Mutualistas Formed to help Jews Mutualistas Formed by Mexican Americans to help with loans and legal assistance Society of American Indians in 1911 Formed to help Native Americans protest federal Indian policy
