Progressivism Limits• African Americans

– Jim Crow laws• Plessy v. Ferguson

– Supreme court ruled separate, segregated facilities were constitutional as long as they were equal.

– This ruling laid a legal foundation for discrimination in accommodations, services, education, housing, hiring, health care, legal representation and everything affecting American life and held a firm hold on race relations in the United States until President Lyndon Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibited employment discrimination based on race, sex, national origin, or religion; and prohibited public access discrimination, leading to desegregation of everything that had been segregated by Plessy v. Ferguson in 1896

– Separate but equal –inherently unequal

People (NAACP) in 1909.– Wanted African Americans to demand equality at once.

EXPLAIN THIS POLITICAL CARTOON

Restrictions on immigration

• By 1917, Congress refused entry to immigrants over the age of 16 who could not pass a literacy test. (most did not come from English speaking countries)– “Old” immigrants were from Northern and

western Europe.– “New” immigrants were from Southern and

eastern Europe.

• Immigrants began printing their own newspaper, athletic and social clubs, and its own theater groups.– Supported local political machines

Workers and Radicals• Sherman Antitrust Act

– Strikes were illegal– Set up to battle business monopolies—worked on unions.

• Socialist groups rising– blaming capitalist system where as progressives blamed owners.

• Industrial Workers of the World (IWW) formed in Chicago in 1905, wanted a single union for all workers.– Direct action by employees– Radical group

Bisbee Deportation 1917• Bisbee, Arizona, 1917• Issues:

– Copper was in demand—WWI– Copper prices were up– Wages stayed the same– Conditions not good

• Workers and IWW members went on strike.

• On July 12, 1917,---1,185 men were herded into filthy boxcars by an armed vigilante force in Bisbee, Arizona, and abandoned across the New Mexico border. The Bisbee Deportation of 1917 was not only a pivotal event in Arizona's labor history, but one that had an effect on labor activities throughout the country.

Cross purposes of the Progressives

• African Americans

• Immigrants

• Socialists

• Radical worker groups – IWW– These groups suffered the most from the

social ills that motivated progressives, but did not get the benefits they needed.
