Progressive Era Amendments (The Constitution EXPLAINED)

Cha-Cha-Changes. The Progressive Era brought many changes to people’s lives. Through these 3 videos, students discover some of them. Students learn about the inclusion of the income tax in the Constitution, the rollercoaster of Prohibition and its repeal, and the expansion of voting rights for women.

This playlist is a part of Constitution EXPLAINED, a series of 35 short videos that explain the text, history, and relevance of the United States Constitution, Bill of Rights, and additional amendments in everyday language.

Developed in partnership with the Center for Civic Education, and with the invaluable contributions of constitutional scholar Linda R. Monk, JD.
