How did education change in the late 1800's and early 1900's?
Congress passed a law that said kids have to go to school for 12-16 weeks a year
Education became much more available for whites but not for blacks. Some Africans went to school but there was still a lot of racism and segregation.
With more lower age education colleges became more popular and people became much more educated. This was not good for some big businesses because they had uneducated workers working for them who were now going to school.
