Perhaps the greatest shortcoming of the Progressive movement was that it lacked any real political prowess, since most in Congress were the very corrupt people the movement itself was trying to overtake.

What did the government pay artists to do
pentagon [3]

Jackson Pollock, Lee Krasner, Willem de Kooning, and Mark Rothko are best-known as pioneers of Abstract Expressionism. But all four were also among thousands of artists and other creatives employed by the government through the Works Progress Administration (WPA) between the years of 1935 and 1943. That the arts would be funded significantly by the federal government—never mind that it would actively employ artists—may well raise an eyebrow today. But working under a subdivision of the WPA known as the Federal Art Project, these artists got to work to help the country recover from the Great Depression, as part of President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s New Deal.

Evidence of impoverishment and a portfolio showcasing one’s skills and commitment to the arts were all that was needed to qualify for the WPA initiative. This and the Federal Art Project’s non-discrimination clause meant that it attracted, and hired, not just white men but also artists of color and women who received little attention in the mainstream art world of the day. These artists created posters, murals, paintings, and sculptures to adorn public buildings.

Examine the following excerpt from Emmeline Pankhurst's speech "Why We
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

Pankhurst believed that women should resort to militancy and violence to achieve equal rights.

Explanation:

In her 1913 speech, Emmeline Pankhurst provided an explanation as to why the women had to resort to militancy to achieve the rights they sought for. She explained that in 1832, the men of England resorted to violent agitations before they were granted their franchise rights through the Reform Act of 1867.

Women over the years had used peaceful means to present their grievances of not being granted equal rights and up to then, they have been deemed unserious. Therefore, Pankhurst asserted that the only way women will be taken seriously was through militant agitations and violence of which she was a very willing participant.
