Era of Reform (1820-1860)(The American Nation - Pages 396-397)
In the mid-1800s, dedicated reformers sought to better American society. Many of these reformers acted on their political ideals. They wanted the nation to live up to its promise of "liberty and equality for all." Religious feeling also spurred many reformers.
Reform took many directions. Two of the most sweeping goals were equal rights for women and the abolition of slavery. Reformers often faced opposition, criticism, and even threats. Yet, they continued to struggle and slowly gained support.
