The Ottomans conquered the area now known as Turkey.
Dear Auntie,
How are you? How is your family style going? The year is 1932, and I've been listening to the election between Roosevelt and Hoover. My side of the story isn't so bright as you would've or expected it to be. Over the past few days I was doing fine until I was plummeted into poverty by the stock market crash. I might loos my job Auntie. I'm gonna cry. I don't like this. And now I have to live in a one bedroom apartment with seven of our family members. It's so crammed in that apartment. Herbert Hoover and Franklin Roosevelt were two men with completely opposite ideas on how to get the country out of the Great Depression. Not only were their policies different from one another, and the way they were raised, they were also from different political parties.
I don't know who's gonna win this election. It'd the Great Depression here, there, maybe even where you live. I don't like it here. It get more sad and people just want to have a good life after and during this election because they want a really good president. Maybe I can vote this time? The seven families are doing fine by the way cause I just knew you wanted to know. I might have to move back to Europe. Everyone here is so..... mean, depressed, worried about how there life is going to end up as. I don't blame them. I love you Auntie and I want to see you again but, I don't know if that's gonna happen in the great depression and me being an immigrant..
Sincerely your niece,
Leah
P.S. everyone loves and really misses you. We will figure this out together as a family. I really love you.
Gladden describes Reformers as the "Men of Goodwill".
Washington Gladden was a prominent leader and a person who formulated the idea of the Social Gospel (a movement in North America began in the second half of the 19th century), he was also a preeminent member of the Progressive Movement. He had a firm belief in the social gospel. He urged his followers (reformers) to <u>put pressure on the political leaders to follow the will of the common people, rather the desires of affluent Industrialists</u>. One of the most significant contributions of the reformers to the society was the making of the Settlement Houses. He and his followers raised voice for the equality of the African- Americans.
Several factors came together. Europe had a population that was on average richer than most other cultures. A very competitive commercial class, ships that were superior than other cultures, developed for the rough North Atlantic, and a number of competitive states rather than a single empire.
