During the 1900’s the United States went through economic, social, and political problems like child labor, immigration, sanitation, corruption, poverty, labor rights, segregation, women rights, voting rights, monopoly, and more. At this point America was in need of an active government that would take the action of improving America. Journalist, newspapers, and magazines kept on exposing the suffering and wrongdoings of the nation. Organized groups became very important during this time. For example, The Anti Saloon league, which ended up being the most successful and it, enforced morality. As well as, some Afro Americans who fought segregation, including W. E. B. Du Bois and the NAACP. Equally important the NAWSA fight for equality was immense.
