Paths to Progress Discussion
No unread replies.No replies.
In this module, you’ve learned about the goals, interests, and activities of the American Progressive movements of the late 1800s and early 1900s. What is the legacy of these endeavors today? Is Progressivism as Theodore Roosevelt understood it still around? Do Progressives use the same means to an end that were used a century ago?

Compare and/or contrast the current Progressive movement or contemporary Progressive politics to the Progressivism you studied in this module. You may need to do some light research to make sure you understand who today’s Progressives are and where they stand on issues like the ones that concerned the country’s original Progressives.

When you have written a few paragraphs comparing and contrasting Progressivism then and now, respond to the posts of at least two other students. In each response, explain how your own perspective is similar to or different from the other student’s perspective, and provide evidence or examples to support your ideas.
