Young Progressive Poster The Progressive Era was a time in United States history when people, both rich and poor, began to concern themselves with how they could make our country a better place to live in. For the first time, social issues became a part of the larger social and political picture. In the 21st century, the need for this type of thinking is greater now than it has ever been. Your assignment is to put yourself in the position of a “Young Progressive.” I would like you to pick a topic or cause that is of concern to you, and design a poster around it. Please make sure that the cause that you choose is realistic and relevant. “Save the Shopping Carts!” is not an appropriate topic. Really take some time to think about something in the world that you would like to see changed; specifically, something where the change would be a benefit for many people, rather than just yourself.

Populists The political group was made up of Agrarian workers(farmers)\ The goal behind the movement was to elevate the little man against the corrupt elites Anti-big businesses
