Muckrakers+(1-8)

Main Page

Muckrakers are novelists and critics from the late 1800s to early 1900s, who investigated and exposed societal issues such as conditions in slums and prisons, factories, sweatshops, child labor, and unsanitary conditions in food processing plants. Muckrakers often wrote about impoverished people and took aim at the established institutions of society, sometimes in a sensationalist and tabloid manner. They have tried to reform many social and political problems.
