Today in History class I worked with Forrest and Liddy. Forrest had the topic of improvements of the airplane industry, I had the use of cocaine in Coca Cola, and Liddy had women's suffrage. Our goal was to find out how all of our goals connected to the Progressivism movement, and how they affected one another.
Progressivism was a movement that tackled a myriad of society’s needs. Progressivism was a societal movement that focused on improving the United States in response to the problems caused by industrialization and corruption in government through social, political, and economic change. By definition, progressives did not focus on one area of society to improve. They helped the United States develop the health, social rights, and technology of many individuals. For example, public health conditions were advanced because of lobbyists that pushed for the removal of cocaine in Coca-Cola. Effort put into women’s suffrage led to the passing of the 19th Amendment. Additionally, the progression in aviation technology led to the development of powerful planes to help the U.S. with foreign relations and disputes which ultimately brought about more social organization.

The progressive movement was an all-encompassing wave of societal improvement. Progressives lobbied to fix several facets of society’s flaws. All of these areas of improvement mentioned above combined to form a concerted effort toward the progression of society. Health, social, and technological development all worked together to improve the nation. For instance, the removal of cocaine in Coca Cola left America with a healthier population. Healthy people can work to improve airplanes. People without ailments caused by traces of drugs in their soda are able to be more active in social movements like the women’s suffrage movement. Advanced planes let a country protect itself from other nations, which allows it to progress in other areas uninterrupted. Women that can vote can influence politics to a greater extent and add to the progressive effort, too.
