John Carrillo period: 5

​Upton Sinclair before the Jungle

​Upton Sinclair was born September 20th 1878. when Sinclair was 10 years old his family moved from Baltimore to new York city. He was a very intelligent boy, and when he was 14 he had begun to write short humor pieces for magazine. he had graduated collage at the age of 20 from Colombia university, and he wanted to become a novelist. briefly after, he had married to Meta Fuller whom he had a unhappy marriage with. His marriage did inspire him to write his first novel "Springtime, and Harvest" in 1901 it was a financial failure. He had later wrote a few more novels but were poorly revived.

The Jungle

Sinclair had a heart for the immigrants moving to america. He had seen the hardships that many immigrants had suffered. So what he did was in 1904 he was sent to Chicago to write for a magazine how the workers were mistreated. However he didn't stop there he decided to write a fictional but accurate novel about the experiences there. It was published in 1906. He wanted to show the harsh treatment of the immigrants however the public responded differently.

The descriptions that were displayed in the noel of the plant only made readers sick. Many only cared about what was being shoved down their throats. The masses gave little attention to the immigrant who lost his hand only about where it went. However it did bring about positive change with the meat inspection act, and the food and drug act passing that same year. This came with the improved safety and it had struck a blow to the meat packing industry.

Andrew Carnegie

Carnegie was born November 25th 1835 in the united kingdom. He was part of the old immigrants from Europe. He had begun his success in steel. He had struck gold when he started steel he had begun to mass produce steel all across america. Carnegie believed in giving back to the community writing in the gospel of wealth "the rich have a moral obligation to give their fortunes. He had donated his money to build libraries, and schools. Today he is the number 4th greatest philanthropist giving around $9.5 billion dollars adjusted to inflation. He had also built the Carnegie hall in new York city.

However when you run a multi billion dollar company something is bound to go wrong. At one of his plants there was a strike due to cutting wages. What ensued was a battle between Pinkerton detectives, and the workers. This resulted in a few deaths, and had tarnished Carnegie's reputation.

Overall

Overall these individuals had a large role of change during the era. Both brought positive roles to the scummy nature of the gilded age and the rise of big business. Sinclair exposed the brutal injustices of meatpacking not just to the immigrants but to the consumers even if the second part wasn't part of the message. On the other hand Carnegie may have had a few slip ups here and there his ideas of giving back were necessary for the time in the rise of corporate hacks.

Ida. B wells

Who is she: Ida. B wells was an activist, journalist, abolitionist, and feminist who disagreed with lynching. Ida. B wells later started an anti- Lynching movement during 1890. She was also the founder of the NAACP but left the NAACP because of its lack of initiative to impact and cause change. As a journalist, she would write about the issues regarding the south such as politics and race, in which her articles would be published in the black newspapers.

Upton Sinclair

Upton Sinclair was an American novelist, as well as a short-story writer. He first gained notoriety in 1906 when he created "The Jungle" this book exposes the conditions of the U.S. meat-packaging industry. This later led to the pass of the Meat Inspection Act in 1906. This meant that animals were met to pass inspection by the U.S. food and drug administration

Lyrics-

My name is Upton Sinclair I'm an American novelist; I looked at the industry and saw what the problem is. I said the meatpacking industry isn't even as ill as me unless you're talking about eating one of their meats whether it's pork or it's beef

I fought against them I told them" yeah you're pretty good,but you're not great until you droppin a book" havin these people look, havin these people look, staring into you're meat while it's not even cooked talking all the precautions that you said that you took.

My book "The Jungle" is book about all the meats that make your tummy tumble rumble and when the people find out they made the industry crumble.

Theodore Roosevelt read the jungle and the made the meat inspection act when he saw they got lyrically cooked.

Now let me introduce you to my friend Ida B. Wells.

Hi, my name is Ida B. Wells and if you don't know me then please let me tell you I'm an African-American journalist, abolitionist, feminist trust me I know I was infamous. I strived for African justice, the black youth getting lynched I swear it was just us.

I wrote about issues of race and politics in the south; because as an African American they made sure had no words in our mouth.

I brought the anti- lynching campaign to the white house causing a storm but I did what I did so the president was forced to make reforms.

being the founding member of the NAACP was no thing to me, it lacked initiative and it just wasn't true to me.

I later made the African American Kindergarten but that wasn't enough so I fought for something that was even tougher, women's suffrage, but in the 1930s they called my bluff

Alright, alright. That's what I'm talkin' about!

Now everyone give it up for the captain of industry

Andrew Carnegie!
[Andrew Carnegie (all men) {all women}:]
Give to the poor!

(To the poor!)

(To the poor!)

{(To the poor!)}

From the rich!

{From the rich!}

(From the rich!)

{From the rich!}

It's a moral obligation!

(obligation!)

(obligation!)

They are less fortunate than us

(than us)

{than us}

To the people

{(To the people!)}

{(To the community!)}

And the riches that you provide

(You provide!)

{(You provide!)}

May you always...

{(Always)}

Be generous

{(Morgan)}

JP Morgan Senior, he just might

Merge two companies and lead the flight

Progressive Era and took the time

Stopped the Panic of 1907

So we remember him as a champion

And we'll call out, "JP Morgan!"

The champion involved in the making of the Steel Corporation

And this was when kerosene

Rose dramatically in significance

It wasn't just kerosene, it was gas'line

That made Rock'feller rise in finance
[Full Company:]
This was our advance
[Andrew Carnegie:]
You strike me as a man who only wants gold

I'm sure I don't know what you mean

You forget yourself
[Andrew Carnegie:]
You're not me

I'm not so greedy

Is that right?
[Andrew Carnegie:]
I've never been as greedy

My name is Jay Gould
[Andrew Carnegie:]
Andrew Carnegie

Not a baron, huh?
[Andrew Carnegie:]
No I'm gladly not

There's a million things I wouldn't do, but

Just you wait, just you wait...

So so so... so this is the man, the myth, it's Jay Gould

An industrialist! The hell is this shit?

It's the glory of gold, of cashin' the crop

Robber baron of the damn Gilded Age! He's got the grit

His corruption lasted two decades, maybe three decades

But not too far away was Cornelius,

Built his wealth on the railroad, he's

An unmannered 'Bilt, a bite so big

He's cashed out in riches, so let's see if it sticks

Too brute to be praised, but the brute's too shrewd to lose aim

Jumped from sailboat to railroad in a minute

He's a bit too fit to be a 'Bilt and be so rich

Underestimate a 'Bilt

Even just a bit and you'll get hit

But there is just one man to clap on and clap on

So we clap back to the captain of industry and he is...
[Andrew Carnegie:]
Selfless...

And I know he is...
[Andrew Carnegie:]
Selfless...

And his deeds are just...
[Andrew Carnegie:]
Selfless...

And I realize
[Narrator and Company:]
that the Gospel of Wealth was his last good de-ed
[Company (except Rockefeller):]
Rockefeller
[Rockefeller:]
I'm a man in a world in which

my only job is to get rich

I'm not a robber baron so I'm the one

Who has to turn and lend some

So I'm the richest and a Baptist and the corruption in

New York City is insidious

And people are penniless

I'll make their pockets be full with wealthiness

Leland Stanford

I'll go to California to chase gold

No property or library

But they strike it rich in Sacramento

So I'll be

the founder of my own company

Now that's my pride

Namesake to a private university

This is all six businessmen

Thank you for all your attention

They call me J.P. Morgan the banker's banker,

and I'm about to show you whose lyrics are danker

I make stacks, I bought out Carnegie, the steal titan,

I formed the first billion dollar company so just keep on tryin

My genius plan during the panic of 1907 , saved the nation,

Just like I financed the general electric corporation

In 1893 I refinanced railroads during the American Great Depression,

Me being a smart business man is my one & only confession

I'm believed to be the 24th richest man in U.S. history,

But you know that all my hard work made me captain of industry

Wassup its Upton Sinclair,

And I am bouta inform you, listen if you dare

Im an American writer written, written a hundred books,

I attended city college at 14 bet I was getting looks

Then I went to Columbia University

Even organized the E.P.I.C. to end poverty

But don't do me wrong or you'll end up in a book just like my ex-wife, Meta

But my biggest success was "The Jungle"

Exploited the harsh conditions immigrants worked under

To meatpacking industry tried to steal their thunder

But no I exposed their treachery

I'm Ida Tarbell here is my story since you don't know me too well

I went to school at Allegheny college,

It helped me learn to write and gain knowledge

The best muckraker here, who cracked the oil trust,

I exposed the standard oil company to be a big fat bust

Class is in session, I am Ms. Tarbell,

I wrote "All in the day's work" you can tell

I was the only woman to graduate,

I already busted that oil company, you're really really late

No to be confused, I am Ida B. Wells,

Don't worry I'm here ring the church bells

I'm an African American journalist,

Outta my family I was the eldest

I led an anti-lynching crusade to end their powers,

Since I was born a slave I endured the horrors

I founded N.A.W.S.A. to assist women's suffrage,

I protested in women's parades for coverage

With all the mistreatment to Africans I was disgusted,

I became the integral striving for African-American justice

OVERVIEW

In the video, we'll talk about four figures from the progressive era whose contributions influenced the advancement of society: WEB Dubois, Booker T. Washington, Ida Tarbell, and Ida B. Wells. Some of WEB's achievements include the founding of the NAACP and the Niagra reform movement. Booker T. Washington acted as a voice for former slaves, founded the Tuskegee Institute and the National Negro League, and delivered the Atlanta Compromise. Ida Tarbell is the author of "The History of the Standard Oil Company" and one of the leading "muckraker" voices of this era. Similarly, Ida B. Wells documented the mistreatment of blacks in the South and made it a primary goal to stop lynching throughout the US.

EDIT

In the video, I say that Booker T. Washington "encouraged the continuation of segregation," but that is not entirely accurate. He advised the black community to continue to submit to white rule because he believed educational and economic security to be more important than social activism. Sorry! -Jordyn
