Week 11: Religion and Reform

This week, we will be learning more about reform movements that swept the country during the 19th century. Religious tent revivals.  Writers and artists with new looks on life.  The importance of education.  Reforming criminals.  Preserving the family through ridding life of alcohol.  Freeing slaves.  Giving women a voice.  All these things took root during this time, and grew into what we now know.
