7. What inspired Jane Addams and the women who worked at Hull House to join the settlement

house movement? Why did these middle and upper class, educated women choose to live in

working class, immigrant neighborhoods? How did their work provide fulfillment and purpose in

their lives? Do you think their work was more beneficial to the community or to themselves?

Jane Addams and the women of Hull House were driven by a “subjective necessity” to bridge the gap between their privileged educations and the harsh realities of industrial America. Inspired by Londons Toynbee Hall, they moved into Chicagos 19th Ward to practice “social democracy,” believing that true reform required living as neighbors to the immigrants they served rather than practicing charity from a distance. This lifestyle provided these women with a vital escape from the “Family Claim”the era’s expectation that they remain idle household figuresoffering them instead a path toward professional fulfillment as social investigators and political activists. While the community gained life-changing resources like a day nursery, public baths, and legal aid, the movement was equally beneficial to the reformers themselves; it gave a “stolen” generation of educated women a public voice and a revolutionary sense of purpose long before they had the right to vote. This quote supports my answer remarkably well because it highlights the moral obligation both reformers felt to make their life experiences useful to the public –

“Riiss work was written in the belief that every mans experience ought to be worth something to the community from which he drew it, no matter what that experience may be, so long as it was gleaned along the line of some decent, honest work. –

3. Describe Riiss literary style. Does his writing style seem particularly journalistic? What was he trying

to accomplish through this style of writing? Was he trying to just present the facts or do something else?

Jacob Riis utilized a “muckraking” style that fused gritty, firsthand reporting with intense moral urgency. Rather than providing neutral observations, he used sensational language to shock the upper classes into recognizing the horrors of apartment life. He aimed to prove that filthy environments, rather than essential character flaws, were responsible for the “misery and vice” of the poor. Ultimately, his writing was a strategic tool for reform designed to provoke the moral resentment necessary to force immediate legislative change. Therefore, to support my answer, I will include –

“Riis knew what it was to suffer, to starve, and to be homeless, and, though his prose was sometimes sensationalist and even occasionally prejudiced, he had what Roosevelt called “the great gift of making others see what he saw and feel what he felt.” –
