Why the Reforms??? REJECTED If individuals were not “predestined”, they could change things Second Great Awakening led to changes in reform – Charles Grandison Finney

Temperance Drinking was on the rise…why? Many people blamed alcohol for crime, disorder, and poverty…women especially joined the temperance movement…why?

Temperance Organizations Formed Some felt people preached forgoing hard liquor only; while others preached banning (in legislative form) all liquor American Society for the Promotion of Temperance Washington Temperance Society Temperance Movement Divided

By 1860, literacy in the U.S. was 94% Education of Native Americans was limited Black population in the South was barred from education

Rehabilitation Debtors would serve prison terms Public Hangings Criminals, debtors, and the mentally ill were all grouped together indiscriminately “Prisons” were ill-equipped Imprisonment for Debtors ended Public Hangings ended States built “penitentiaries” & mental institutions New Prison discipline methods Orphanages were established

The idea among reformers was that these institutions could help / rehabilitate the individual. Was it a successful movement? Why or why not?

Indian Reservations How did reservations fit the reform model?
