American History

This program explores many facets of the Gilded Age, including industrialization and the growth of big business, the urbanization of America, the grueling working conditions many endured, and the influence of Victorian culture on American Society.

The Progressive Era—This program explores our history and culture during the early 20th century, when a wave of reforms changed our political system and attempted to remedy the social and economic inequities arising from industrialization and urbanization.

The Roaring Twenties—In the presidential election of 1920, war-weary Americans elected Warren G. Harding, who promised a return to "normalcy". His inauguration in 1921 ushered in an exciting era of prosperity, rapid industrialization, social experimentation, and artistic renaissance—the Roaring Twenties, also known as the Jazz Age.
