Answer:

Progressive Era  

"Ida Tarbell was one among the leading muckrakers of the Progressive Era of the late 19th and early  20th centuries and pioneered investigative journalism. Born in Pennsylvania at the onset of the oil  boom, Tarbell is best known for her 1904 book, The History of the Standard Oil Company.

Jane Addams was uncommonly progressive for her time. She campaigned against income  inequality, creating places like Hull House that sought to meet the needs of the poor who lived in cities.  Alice Paul believed that drastic steps were needed to win the vote for the right to vote. By 1913, she  was recruiting women of all backgrounds from all over the nation to join the cause. In 1917, she formed  the NWP(National Woman's Party) which used public marches and protests in front of the white house."

What were some of the failures from the progressive era
mezya [45]

Answer:

Although Progressivism brought greater efficiency to government, established a more equal playing field for business, and increased the political power of ordinary citizens, the biggest failure of the Progressive Era was its exclusive nature. The Progressive Era coincided with the Jim Crow era, which saw intense segregation and discrimination of African Americans. The legitimacy of laws requiring segregation of blacks was upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court in the 1896 case of Plessy v. Ferguson. The ruling on Plessy thus allowed segregation which represented the institutionalization of the Jim Crow period. Everyone was supposed to receive the same public services but with separate facilities for each race.

so basically, it failed to solve racism and segregation.
