A drinking problem was widespread across the United States that particularly threatened  spiritual welfare. Because religious beliefs was a prime cause from the Second Great Awakening, the American Temperance Society was formed to have reformers join and pledge not to intake any alcohol. They used propaganda to spread the idea of temperance.]]> 2016-11-27 22:06:35 UTC https://padlet.com/3dayeventing101/61f3t5gmqevm/wish/140055432 smartyball https://padlet.com/3dayeventing101/61f3t5gmqevm/wish/140065191 Neal Dow, "the father of prohibition", sponsored the Main Law of 1851, prohibiting any sale or manufacturing of drinking alcohol in Maine, after witnessing abused children from their drunk parents and his drunken employees. This transformed Maine, protecting religions from the threats of alcohol, which was a reform during Second Great Awakening.]]> 2016-11-28 00:33:09 UTC https://padlet.com/3dayeventing101/61f3t5gmqevm/wish/140065191 3dayeventing101 https://padlet.com/3dayeventing101/61f3t5gmqevm/wish/140713880 The Treatment of Prisoners was an aftermath of the Second Great Awakening. They were very strict on crimes committed. The big crimes were jailed with the small crimes and the adult criminals were jailed withe the child criminals. They were beaten daily like African American slaves.]]> 2016-11-30 05:21:48 UTC https://padlet.com/3dayeventing101/61f3t5gmqevm/wish/140713880 3dayeventing101 https://padlet.com/3dayeventing101/61f3t5gmqevm/wish/140714816 Dorothea Dix went to a prison one day to teach Sunday School and was horrified. She witnessed all these nasty treatments and talked against it to try to change their ways. She went around to multiple prisons to make sure that the prisoners were treated bad everywhere like the one she witnessed in Boston. She got people to create private asylums and improve the treatments of prisoners especially the handicapped.]]> 2016-11-30 05:41:21 UTC https://padlet.com/3dayeventing101/61f3t5gmqevm/wish/140714816 smartyball https://padlet.com/3dayeventing101/61f3t5gmqevm/wish/140977575 Thomas Gaullaudet was a renowned American pioneer in the education of the deaf to help the handicapped.

Maine became the first state to pass this law and twelve other states followed suit. These laws were referred to as the Maine Laws around the country. ]]> 2016-11-30 22:05:29 UTC https://padlet.com/3dayeventing101/61f3t5gmqevm/wish/140979666 angelklawiter https://padlet.com/3dayeventing101/61f3t5gmqevm/wish/141424296 The main belief of the Second Great Awakening was that the churches were the agent for change. Many took the belief in a utopian society where pain and torture were not the answer. These new ideas spread throughout American society and inspired many of the time when they witnessed the treatment of prisoners and the handicapped. Such people included Dorothea Dix and Thomas Gallaudet. People such as Dorothy Dix, visited prisons and witnessed the abuse (brutally punishing of mentally insane prisoners) and the imprisonment of both children and adults in the same prison. People such as Thomas Gallaudet were inspired and in some cases appalled by the treatment of the handicapped especially of the treatment of the mentally ill in prisons. These people led to reforms such as the separation of children and adults in prison, creating new prisons for the mentally ill criminals, changing the way that prisoners were treated. These activists stood in front of the government, even foreign governments (Dorothy Dix in Britain) and pushed for these changes, where others took matters into their own hands and created new prisons and psychiatric hospitals for the mental ill.]]> 2016-12-02 16:10:43 UTC https://padlet.com/3dayeventing101/61f3t5gmqevm/wish/141424296
