The Progressive Era: Crash Course US History #27
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 июн 2024
- In which John Green teaches you about the Progressive Era in the United States. In the late 19th and early 20th century in America, there was a sense that things could be improved upon. A sense that reforms should be enacted. A sense that progress should be made. As a result, we got the Progressive Era, which has very little to do with automobile insurance, but a little to do with automobiles. All this overlapped with the Gilded Age and is a little confusing, but here we have it. Basically, people were trying to solve some of the social problems that came with the benefits of industrial capitalism. To oversimplify, there was a competition between the corporations' desire to keep wages low and workers' desire to have a decent life. Improving food safety, reducing child labor, and unions were all on the agenda in the Progressive Era. While progress was being made, and people were becoming freer, these gains were not equally distributed. Jim Crow laws were put in place in the south, and immigrant rights were restricted as well. So once again on Crash Course, things aren't so simple.
Hey teachers and students - Check out CommonLit's free collection of reading passages and curriculum resources to learn more about the events of this episode. The Progressive Era was marked by rapid reactions to the Gilded Age: www.commonlit.org/texts/the-p...

Chloe Marie FACTZ

To APUSH students:
We're all in this together
Test tomorrow, we made it!
Bruh, I have that test tomorrow.
same bro, the grind is real
Have a test tomorrow 🙏
To be honest, I have a crazy APUSH teacher that doesn't really teach so this is how I'm learning more in 15 minutes than 3.5 hours a week.
+RachelEverdeen that is so sad. Teachers should be teaching !!!! Hope it gets better for you!
+emthornsbury thanks so much for your kind words! I'm pushing through the 2nd semester and just trying to enjoy other classes as much as possible! :)
So tru
BIG MOOD IM STRUGGLIN

We all doin that.
+Lizzie Burnham SAME!!!
More like the morning of...
SAME
+Lizzie Burnham yep same two but now count how many shocks he had in all videos
90% of the comments: APUSH students. 10% of the comments people who are legitimately just interested in history
88% of comments: APUSH Crammers. 9% of comments: People interested in History. 2% of comments: Both. 1% of comments: Trolls
Most APUSH students are interested in history.
And you believe they are mutually exclusive?
@@RM-th9ur Can not confirm
You forgot about us non native speakers of english studying english 😢
Upton Sinclair later said, "I wanted to touch America's heart, but instead touched her stomach."
... Or something to that effect.
Damn
I totally guessed "the Jungle" was going to be the mystery doc
"I can only imagine how LONG and HARD you've worked to get the phrase beef-boner into the show and you finally did it." You have one sense of humor John
Our APush teacher made us spend two days listening to a reading of The Jungle. The only reaction I got from that novel, besides vomitting into my mouth, was joy from guessing the mystery document correctly.
Alicia Selvera I studied this in middle school lol...I was sick to my stomach and I didn't eat the meat in school cause it would always remind me of the books description..took me long to get over it lmao.
What APUSH stands for

This is the first time I guessed the Mystery Document author! GO ME!

"touch your nose to prove literacy" - animations in this video do not have noses. Great. Good.
He should be a History teacher, like I have to take a test early on this and Gilded Age so watching his videos
but like he should be my history teacher cause yeah
Yeah I am writing an essay for APUSH on the progressive era and this video gives me enough information to write about it.
2 hours till the exam.
I am watching this at twice speed...
Welp...
Procrastination is great!
Madison Leigh 56 minutes until the exam
When your APUSH TEST is in two days and you just finished chapter 30
i'm so screwed
Watch it on x2 speed
We didnt even get to chapter 30

"I aimed for the heart of America, but I hit it in the stomach"
- Upton Sinclair
Mr. Green, you are simply THE BEST because unlike many many school teachers you don't scream, get neurotic or lose patience and you have precise and clear thoughts. Most importantly passion!
As much as I like my AP teacher, APUSH doesn't let him teach everything in 2 semesters. So I gotta do, currently 8 AMSCO's and 40+ US History Crash Courses. The AP test in on April.
Good luck to everyone tomorrow!!!
The Rush joke at the beginning earned you my undying loyalty
Who else is here cramming for the Online AP exam?🤪
@@belizbaloglu4400 honestly were lucky we get to have study guides out

i want to cry lmao

A video on the Progressive Era without mention of the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire? One of the biggest work place tragedies in American History? The event responsible for nearly all workplace safety laws in the U.S.? That Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire? And you omitted it? Come on, man.
Decetop my thought exactly too
He also omitted the Battle of Blair Mountain the largest Labor Uprising in American History and the largest uprising since the American Civil War.
Hey! Thanks so much for what you do. I teach AP and Dual US History (and government and Eco) and use these to either introduce a unit or sum it up. They are awesome! Showing the TARDIS and using the phrase "timey wimey" just bumped you and your writers to the top of my high esteem list. These quiky ditties filled with both historical facts and current pop culture entertain my little nerds and broaden the horizons of my bright, but non-nerds as we go through and explain the references. Keep it up, you are very much appreciated.
Why is it so hard for me to understand history? I have practically no idea of what you just said.
to be fair, CC usually does a crappy job of communicating main ideas/events/consequences/relations/basically everything clearly and effectively. I find John's attempts at humor muddying and the graphics more distracting than helpful...that said, this is the only source I know that'll give me a summary/overview of whatever unit I'm working on atm...I get what they're trying to do, they're trying to keep it entertaining and engaging but I find it unhelpful. So yeah, that could be it.
Same. I suck at history
Cheyenne Dobie Same. I'm more of a math and science person. Most people I know are really good at history and English, so I feel really dumb when they find a history lesson or English essay so simple when I'm completely lost. I guess that's why I want to become a mechanical engineer.
Michael LastName I'm a history and English guy.... You should be happy because math and science gives you jobs.
He actually made progressivism hard to understand but it is easy.
When you say "the first book", does that mean you have barfed on multiple occasions while reading?
fartzinwind idk

Anyone watching in 2019? This is super helpful (where we started and where we are)
REDISCOVERING ME 2020 my dude
Kendra600 yep
The "Wibbly Wobbly" got me
I'm just glad John is helping me not fail my AP US history test tomorrow. Thank you to crash course!
OTP means "one true pairing" meaning Hazel and Agustus were people's favorite combination of characters in fandom, in case anyone was wondering.
how do you talk so much with out breathing????????????????? :O
+Dylan Eidson Jump cuts, man.
Power of editing.
I'd suggest a caption for the libertage but I'm afraid I'm 3 years late...
+Tinbit Berhanu o my god yes
Wobblies! The I.W.W. was an amazing union, and they still are. Still, it's hard for any group to recover from having ALL OF THEIR UNION HALLS BURNED DOWN BY THE GOVERNMENT! 1917. It happened.
Me: seeing all these AP comments
Also Me here before taking my junior yr history final: “Heyy...how y’all doing”
Watching these videos transports me to a very specific time in my life and it is WILD because I'm supposed to watch these in teacher mode and instead I feel like I'm in 10th grade.
What's great about these videos is that they are highly informative but don't take themselves too seriously.
Anyone else notice the Pokéball in the cornucopia?
+Kevin R. I noticed the Pokeball as well
I love you. You've helped me understand the Progressive Era so much better, and I definitely needed this to get ready for my APUSH unit exam. Green, YOU are awesome.
Anyone else here for APUSH finals
yes.
+Caleb Brown I'm cramming some study for a Gilded Age & Progressive Era test. We got so behind this year because of all the snow days we've recently had.
+Hi, I'm Sky You sound lucky. I have a test from the Progressive Era to the start of the Cold Wars tomorrow.
no...
Caleb Brown what the hell is “APUSH”?
YES I WAS RIGHT ON THE MYSTERY DOCUMENT. BOUT TO ACE THIS FINAL!
Who else got the AP US test tomorrow ?
Same!!!
I do too!!! Good luck!!! :)
Bug Granger yup, that late night cramming be very much real
Link6579 IS ANYONE IN THE NEW YORK TIME ZONE WHO WANTS TO TELL ME THE ESSAY PROMTS TOMORROW?
Daniela Hernani sorry im from California

Cramming on the day before the test. People tell me not to do it but I can't help myself
I get so excited when we watch Crash Course during social studies because John Green is hella rad ❤️
is he kinda awkwardly cute or is it just 1am and my brain is fried from studying for my test tomorrow..
Who’s here cramming the day of the May 2020 exam.
You saved my butt in a test that I study last minute for I’m not sure how to show my thankfulness to you but I want you to know that I’m thankful for you making these videos
To anyone cramming these videos the day before the test, best of luck :)
Rockwall you too!!! im freakin scared of the short answers but aNYWaYs good luck to you
Jennifer Torres Thanks, just finished and I found it pretty easy
Lol, doing this before a different test, but I'll be coming back in May.
Keaton Spell Well, it’s May. I got to take it tomorrow RIP
Rockwall Really? Thanks, that gives me some confidence.

+Aaron Stewart LOL TRU
+Aaron Stewart Same tho
BRO IM CRAMMIN IN 2019 YEET
This definetely helping me out with my American Studies class. It's much easier to remember like this
"your nephew's sister's cousin" translates to either, 'your son/daughter' or 'your nephew/niece'
Or it could be your niece's cousin (to whom you are unrelated)
I listen to these lectures while working in a hotel kitchen, and I've got to say, they keep me sane. Stay in school kids.
This is a great series, you really present the information well given the limited time. Thank you for making these! They've been a Perfect way to go over concepts! 👍💕📚
Test is tomorrow boys, time to start studying
omg me toooo
I've watched a number of your courses. One of the things I like about your series is that you talk really fast. If you are covering something I am familiar with, its not tedious to hear you talk about it. If its new to me, I can usually absorb the information. If I need to, its not a bother to back up and listen to the not fully assimilated section again. Good job, and entertaining in a "learning something important" way.
After reading the comments I feel weird watching these for my own enjoyment rather than for a course.
I never thought I would know the mystery document!
John, I have to say this is my favorite US History episode yet. Thanks for watching? No sir, thank you for sharing this with us all.
Now I know I'm not the only one who always thinks of "wibbly wobbly timey wimey" when I hear wobbly! You have totally earned my respect ;)
Thank you John Green for helping me study at the last minute for my US history test.
Pointing to Germany....... *points to all of Eastern Europe* ok nice job John.
Watching Crash Course the night before the APUSH exam at 2x speed
gotta get that 3
Love this guy! Going back and watching all of them again. Where is you sure, we need more content!
As someone from the greenpartsofnotamerica these videos are really interesting, because we do learn about the period from the American revolution to the American Civil War in school but we always just stop there :)
As a potterhead I appreciate all the HP references.
That moment when you know the author of the mystery document before it's revealed.
"Yasssssssss"
John with the Prog Rock shoutout! xD
Thanks for calling on my favorite genre.
I've got my US History midterm on Monday. This is extremely helpful
"'Broad participatory democracy doesn't always result in an effective government' he said, sounding like the Chinese national Communist Party" hahah
Didn't bother to learn this when we reviewed it... and now the AP test is Friday...
F
So turns out my DBQ was on this 😂 Thank you crash course 🙏
Your videos are awesome! Thank you for your insights and knowledge of our country and its history.
"It goes 'bing' when there's stuff!" That's not the only thing I got out of this. Thanks for helping me truly understand the stuff that was discussed in my sadly boring history lectures. You are a godsend.
I would be learning a lot more in American History if you were my professor.
Lol, we watch these in my U.S. History Class! They're awesome! Love John Green's books btw😂💕
i'm new to the US and i'm in US history and this helps me more than my teacher, thank you
I’d like to thank this video for getting me thru my reform prompt for my APUSH DBQ
YES finally I see a picture of rush in a non rush video.
Ikr
john must be an 80s kid lol
John Green's hands literally can't stop moving. lmao
"Wibly Wobly Timey Wimey"
Another great reference! IDK why but him rfrencing stuff i know about makes my day
Remember the Bull Moose Party under Teddy Roosevelt? Or the Progressive Party under Henry Wallace, the communist vice president under Theodore Roosevelt?
I think we need a Progressive Party for the modern day.
Anthony Serocco Better dead than Red! Communism and modern Progressive are evil
+optimusmikey American Communists: so divided and tiny in number as to be absolutley inconsequential.
Anthony Serocco Wallace was VP under FDR and was not a Communist.
I actually got the mystery document!
My apush test is tomorrow and im binging crash course lol
I have 4 essays on this era due this week and we only have a week.. gotta love online express courses
Thumbed up for Rush.
Same
OMG yes! John finally said Wibbly Wobbly Timey Wimey! Allons-y!
I GUESSED UPTON SINCLAIR YES BITCHEZ BOUT TO GET A 100 ON THIS TEST
imagineaddie Did you ?
I love this show. I watch it all the time.
When you have a test the next day and don't want to read your history book, so you just watch the entire series on repeat for 24hrs.
6 no-shocks to 4 shocks. Great work John. You might just make it to the Mystery Document Playoffs, if you know what I mean.
The mystery documents reminds me of the Mail the guy from blues clues would get 😂
THANK YOU so much for making videos like this.Its going to help me on my U.S history test that I'll be taking soon😂😍Our teacher likes to show us these every unit and they really help😏
Ah, love the Rush reference in the very beginning of the vid!
The exam is here my friends
when everyone is saying AP history struggles and you have this for your grade 7 US history class
That was me back in 7th grade too lol, but now I'm back 4 years later for APUSH... wish I could go back.
Olivia D nah me be wishing I was in first grade 😂
I gave you thumbs up for the Doctor Who reference! Also I'm greatful for the videos as I'm preparing for my US History exam. :) Keep it up, Mr. Green!
instead of being in class for 2 hours trying to learn this i can learn this in 15 mins this dude is a life saver
I don't watch these for APUSH, I watch them for College.
Jackson Taylor same
bro i just wish you would slow down a bit 😭
THANK YOU FOR MAKING THESE VIDEOS. The struggle of APUSH is real. I like learning, so this gives a more entertaining way to learn as opposed to reading a text book.
Test tomorrow boys. Grind time is the prime time.
