Addams and Sarah Weber. She is best known as a social activist and a person who tried to promote equality between the sexes. In 1920, when she was 60, she co-founded the ACLU or the American Civil Liberties Union which according to the ACLU “works to defend and preserve the individual rights and liberties guaranteed by the Constitution and laws of the United States.” Today, they protest injustices in how people are treated differently. One such example is the unjust surveillance of Black equal rights activists. Another of her accomplishments was as the first female sanitary inspector of Chicago. Jane Addams started major social reforms including, but not limited to, controlling sewage, getting rid of impure milk that often contained Tuberculosis, making factory conditions safer, and reducing the amount of toxic smoke being released into the air. She had over 1000 violations reported in a year and started the collection of garbage on the side of roads. These contributions undoubtedly saved many lives. As a result of her actions on behalf of women’s equality, she became a role model to Middle-class women who were trying to make their communities more progressive and accepting. Although she was baptized and raised as a Presbyterian Christian, she became a major advocate for Secular Humanism, which is the belief that the well being of humans should be prioritized over adherence to religion. She was also a staunch pacifist and went so far as to write a letter to Woodrow Wilson about the dangers of preparing for a war. Those dangers included the possibility of poorer countries spending more on war preparedness, and not taking good care of their citizens, which is an example of one of her core beliefs of humanism.

Men of ability and refinement, of social power and university cultivation, stay away from them. Personally, I believe the men who lose most are those who thus stay away. But the paradox is here: when cultivated people do stay away from a certain portion of the population, when all social advantages are persistently withheld, it may be for years, the result itself is pointed at as a reason, is used as an argument, for the continued withholding.

This was created in 1909 and published by Dunston-Weiler Lithograph Company. It shows a man cleaning dishes and taking care of the child. This expresses how many people with anti-suffrage beliefs though if women got the right to vote they would become the more dominant member of society. This also shows the social roles of women at the time of being in the house and taking care of the children, and many were afraid they would switch.]]> 2019-04-02 18:26:04 UTC https://padlet.com/othar_zaldastani20/Othar/wish/347777670 othar_zaldastani20 https://padlet.com/othar_zaldastani20/Othar/wish/347777994 The awakening was created by Mayer Henry in 1915.it was posted in the Puck Magazine. This image dictates Lady Liberty wearing a cape brazening “Votes For Women” while standing aside the states that have adopted suffrage for women, holding her torch causing “enlightenment” to the women in those states that are still in the dark. The states in the black have not allowed for Women's Suffrage, and many women are reaching out to lady liberty for hope to be able to vote. The title of this cartoon suggests that this is the second great awakening.]]> 2019-04-02 18:26:47 UTC https://padlet.com/othar_zaldastani20/Othar/wish/347777994 othar_zaldastani20 https://padlet.com/othar_zaldastani20/Othar/wish/347778380 This photo was taken during Woodrow Wilsons presidency which lasted from 1913-1921.It shows women marching down the streets of Washington D.C.

In 1889, Addams and Starr founded Hull House in Chicago's poor, industrial west side, the first settlement house in the United States. Aside from writing articles and giving speeches nationally about Hull House, Addams expanded her efforts to improve society. Addams led an initiative to establish a School of Social Work at the University of Chicago, creating institutional support for a new profession for women. During World War I, Addams found her second major calling: promoting international peace. Addams wrote articles and gave speeches worldwide promoting peace and she helped found the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom in 1919, serving as its president until 1929 and honorary president until her death in 1935.]]> 2019-04-02 18:33:18 UTC https://padlet.com/othar_zaldastani20/Othar/wish/347781059 othar_zaldastani20 https://padlet.com/othar_zaldastani20/Othar/wish/348677890 This article was written in The Daily Times in 1906.

The reasons they give include most women do not want to vote and what can women accomplish that men can’t. This pamphlet is very persuading because it has no place for you to think otherwise while reading it. The writers of this still believe that men are in control, and if women got a vote it would just double as their husbands vote.]]> 2019-04-04 18:34:33 UTC https://padlet.com/othar_zaldastani20/Othar/wish/348679232
