Woodrow Wilson helped start the 20th century version of the Klu Klux Klan and re instituted segregation in the federal government. That does not sound very progressive, Helen Keller was his contemporary and she was against those things and for Eugene Debs and workers' rights and women's rights.
- ameister14 8y agoYes, those parts weren't very progressive. Wilsonian Progressive reform, which is one of the things he's most famous for (and creating the League of Nations) was pretty progressive, though. It's why he's historically known as a progressive.
