In 1910, the non-agricultural working force was made up of approximately 38 million men and women, many of whom labored in factories.

Frustrated by exploitive working conditions and terrible poverty, some Americans started to protest. They were joined by artists, journalists, politicians, and intellectuals who adopted their cause.

As a whole, these reformers were known as Progressives.

Select one of the following groups that included members sympathetic to the Progressive cause:

Factory workers

Union organizers

Photographers

Writers and journalists

Feminists
