The reform movement in politics, the society, and the economy was known as the Progressive movement.
This movement took several different steps to change American society. This included
A) The development of anti-trust laws- This would clean up the economy and stop monopolies from cornering markets and participating in price gouging.
B) Muckraking- Journalists exposed social ills in American society by writing influential books and using photographs to show things like the horrible working and living conditons of American citizens.

The Black Death of 1348 to 1350
Citation: C N Trueman "The Black Death Of 1348 To 1350"

In Medieval England, the Black Death was to kill 1.5 million people out of an estimated total of 4 million people between 1348 and 1350. No medical knowledge existed in Medieval England to cope with the disease. After 1350, it was to strike England another six times by the end of the century. Understandably, peasants were terrified at the news that the Black Death might be approaching their village or town.
The Black Death is the name given to a deadly plague (often called bubonic plague, but is more likely to be pneumonic plague) which was rampant during the Fourteenth Century. It was believed to have arrived from Asia in late 1348 and caused more than one epidemic in that century – though its impact on English society from 1348 to 1350 was terrible. No amount of medical knowledge could help England when the plague struck. It was also to have a major impact on England’s social structure which lead to the Peasants Revolt of 1381.
