The Progressive movement largely neglected African Americans, who faced systemic racism and segregation during this period. While Progressives focused on issues like labor rights, women's suffrage, and political reforms, they often excluded or overlooked the struggles of Black Americans. Many Progressive leaders either supported or failed to challenge Jim Crow laws, leaving African Americans marginalized in the quest for social and political reform.

A speaker who would most likely have supported the ideas of the Progressive movement is a social reformer like Jane Addams. She advocated for social justice, improved labor conditions, and women's suffrage, aligning closely with Progressive goals. Additionally, a politician such as Theodore Roosevelt, who pushed for regulatory reforms and antitrust legislation, would also embody the Progressive spirit. Both figures emphasized the need for government intervention to address social and economic issues.
The Progressive Era was the most transformational time in the history of American Politics. It was pivitol to the evolution of the progressive politics, and advancement of social programs and the institution of the referenum which allows citizens to challenge their legislators on votes which put a choke hold on local curruption, among other things.

The Progressive Movement in the United States was not started by one person or one group. The progressive ideas and ideals that were expressed in the early years of the 20th century go back to the ideas expressed by Jefferson in the Declaration of Independence. The Progressive Movement inherited ideas and reforms from such groups as the Mugwumps, the groups leading the Social Gospel movement, the women's movement which goes back to the 19th century, Populism, and even some socialistic ideas put forth in the late 19th century. Basically, the progressives saw ills in society at all levels of government--local, state, and national. They attempted to correct these evils and ills in various ways. The thing that made the Progressive Movement more successful than previous groups attempting reform was that the progressivies appealed to a wide variety of people and ideas. They included members of most political parties as well as the poor, middle, and upper classes of society. There were progressive businessmen, progressive politicians, and progressive individuals and groups. Another factor in the success of the movement was that there were three progressive presidents who pushed the ideals of the movement, and leading senators and representatives who helped create the public support for the movement's reforms.

The progressive movement is most concerned with the rights of people. Those in the movement work to prevent abuse at all levels of power.
Most notably Theodore Roosevelt, Woodrow Wilson, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Lyndon B Johnson, Bill and Hillary Clinton, and several others probably can include Barack Obama in that group. However the progressive movement in America is cosidered liberal idealogy and believes that the government should have a greater control of individuals because individuals aren't smart enough to govern themselves. Others think the progressive movement leads to socialism. Yu should probably look into it some more to make up your own mind.

"progressive" is a rather vague term. One could argue that Theodore Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson were the two progressive Presidents, which would make Wilson the second one.

There have been several. I think Teddy Roosevelt gets credit as the first progressive but Woodrow Wilson was also a progressive by action. Franklin Roosevelt, Lyndon Johnson, Bill Clinton and George W. Bush are all considered progressives by most. The of course our current progressive is Barack Obama.
