Dear students,
For your Progressive Era essay, please choose ONE of the two thesis statements below and argue it convincingly in your essay. Choosing one of these two statements is mandatory. Keep in mind that these two statements will lead to very different sounding essays, so be sure to consider each one closely before making up your mind. As always, email me if you have any questions.
1. Progressives addressed the social, economic, political, and environmental problems of their day by challenging some of the most unequal power relationships in America.
2. By participating in reform movements and taking on new responsibilities, women expanded their roles in society and worked toward gender equality.
REMEMBER! That your essay question is on the Unit Overview sheet (posted below.) Please re-read that entire thing before starting your essay. Doing so will only help you.
