    Reforms In The Late 1800s Essay

    Had the reforms of the late 1800s and 1900s remained unchanged, various luxuries we experience today would not exist. While a considerable amount of the U.S population was for reforms, those in high statuses in either government or wealth did not see the need to create changes that could disturb their lives. Or make changes that they did not see significant because those with wealth did not experience all the struggles that were faced by the rest of the population. Major reform efforts of the late 19th and 20th century would consist of political reforms, women’s rights reforms, and labor reforms.…

    Industrialization During The 1800's

    The Black Elite In The 19th Century

    Members in this elite could be achieved through talent, wealth, occupation, family connections, complexion, and education. The elite was what led in the development of black institutions and culture, in the antislavery movement, and in the struggle for racial justice.

    This was very inconvenient for many people and their education quality was not the same as the White’s school. Although you do not have these legal laws anymore, there are parallels to the present laws. For instance, during the Jim Crow Laws era, students were segregated based on skin color and social class.

    The Importance Of Life During Segregation In America

These facilities weren’t even close to being equal. The state funded white schools well, while black schools didn’t really get anything. If the black schools did have books, they were usually old and out-dated books.…
