5 0

Answer:

The events that led to the Progressive Era—which was a period of predominant social and political reforms in the United States between the 1890s and 1920s—were the socioeconomic challenges and problems caused by political corruption and inefficiency, urbanization, immigration, and industrialization. The Progressive Era aimed at tackling and removing corruption from many aspects of government and daily living, and strengthening democracy.

Generally speaking, the progressives were/included both government (political) and non-governmental leaders alike: political leaders included people like Robert M. La Follette Sr., Roosevelt Franklin, Charles Evans Hughes, Woodrow Wilson, William Jennings, etc. On the other hand, non-governmental leaders included Sophonisba Breckinridge, Jane Addams, Edith Abbott, etc.

Answer:

Many black South Africans aspired for and hoped for better education, but they did not receive it.  The Bantu Department of Education's education act sparked widespread outrage in the Black South African community.  The Bantu Education Department enacted a law requiring all black South Africans to be taught exclusively in the Afrikaans language.  If they wanted any kind of secondary education, they could have it.  Unfortunately, Afrikaans was an exceedingly difficult language to learn and teach.  Many of the teachers had a poor education and did not speak Afrikaans, making it impossible for them to teach.  Many of the teachers had minimal education and could not teach Afrikaans since they did not know it.  Many pupils thought it was unjust that they could not learn English simply because of their skin color.  Many other people were offended by this, so many teachers began teaching in English nonetheless, and students began refusing to write and speak in Afrikaans.
