Hey everyone! Today we discussed how people began to move into cities to be closer to the factories during the Industrial Revolution. Since cities were not prepared to cater to the large population coming in within a small period of time, they crowded them into tenement houses. During this time, overcrowding and lack of sanitation led to diseases spreading rapidly. Among these outbreaks were cholera and typhoid.
For homework, you are to finish your political cartoon packets so that you may understand the conditions during this time. Please make sure you answer each question fully. I will check it and discuss on next Thursday (I do not have class with you on Tuesday). Have a great weekend!
