Food for thought: Why would women be among the strongest supporters of temperance?

Because… Adult men were most likely to abuse alcohol, so Women were often the targets of domestic abuse that happened when men had been drinking Women would want to protect their children Women had no other forum to make their needs known because they did not have the power to vote!

Carrie Nation Temperance Reformer Extremely religious upbringing Married a drinker who died when their daughter was an infant Divorced from second marriage

Carrie’s Nickname – “Saloon Hatcher” Used a hatchet to meet goals of temperance movement: 1. destroy property 2. convert saloon keepers

On the other hand…. Prohibition could be considered unconstitutional Takes away the rights of businesses and individuals The majority of Americans were responsible drinkers Why should everyone be punished? Perhaps restrictions did not have to be so severe After all, Jesus turned water into wine!

Closer, 4/17 “The temperance movement, discouraging the use of alcoholic beverages, had been active and influential in the United States since at least the 1830s. Since the use of alcohol was often associated with such social ills as poverty and insanity, temperance often went hand in hand with other reform movements. From the 1850s onward, the temperance movement focused much of its efforts on Irish and German immigrants.” – Library of Congress Why do you think that the temperance movement focused on immigrants living in cities?
