PRESENTATION OUTLINE

TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT OF THE 19TH CENTURY

The temperance movement that started in the 19th century was a movement that picked up steam in the 1830s. I feel that this movement was one of the most important ones because it was trying to stop the domestic violence that was happening in the country.

Take a look at the picture in the background. You see a sign that was used in the temperance movement to let men know that if they drink liquor then the women will no longer be with them.
