COBBLESTONE April 2017

One hundred years ago, children worked in factories, people ate rotten and contaminated food, women were barred from voting, and mining and lumber industries threatened America’s beautiful landscapes. Enter the progressives!

Meet these steadfast agents of change with this month’s issue COBBLESTONE, as well as the people who progressive “reform” left behind or even harmed. Get to know a few modern-day progressives, and see how you can help to shape the direction of the world today. As President Theodore Roosevelt said, “A great democracy must be progressive or it will soon cease to be great or a democracy.” It’s never too soon to make a difference!
