10 Disturbing Exposes That Transformed Society
Beginning with the Progressive Era of US history (c. 1890–1920), writers have used the power of the pen and mass media to uncover the ills of society and call for reform. President Theodore Roosevelt coined the term “muckraker” to describe such reformers, a reference to John Bunyan’s
Pilgrim’s Progress in which a rake is used to dig up muck and filth. The muckraking tradition has become part of investigative reporting and still has an impact to this day.

Afternoon Observer | Chauvin guilty in murder of George Floyd + How much will it cost to fix Charlotte s parks? Kristen Kornbluth, The Charlotte Observer
Apr. 21 Happy Tuesday, everyone. This is Kristen. Today is an important day in North Carolina s civil rights history. 50 years ago, on April 20, 1971, Supreme Court justices ruled in Swann v. Charlotte-Mecklenburg Board of Education that the school board must create a busing plan that would desegregate the district. This ruling would go on to plant seeds of integration in other districts nationwide. Though progress has been made over the years, CMS still has a long way to go to reach equality. Despite Charlotte s diverse population, our neighborhoods and schools are distinctly segregated by race. Learn more about the case and Charlotte s continued reckoning here, and learn more about the lawyer who won the case, Julius Chambers, here.
