A study of American history reveals a rapid period of urbanization in the early twentieth century. More Americans left their agricultural jobs in rural areas and began working in factory jobs in the city. Factory owners were unkind people who were only concerned with making money, so they paid workers poorly and made them work in harsh conditions. It is shocking how poor the conditions were for working women. Not only did they take jobs Thad had long hours or dangerous conditions, they were paid less than men. In what historians call the progressive era women lead a labor reform movement that brought social and economic change to the country. These women deserve our respect for championing the rights of the working class. Which sentence in this text are examples of opinions?
