True.
Many white progressives in the late 19th and early 20th centuries shared the era’s racial prejudices. Prominent progressive leaders and institutions embraced eugenics, supported segregationist policies, favored restrictive immigration laws, and often designed reforms that excluded or subordinated nonwhite people. At the same time, there were exceptions — some progressives and many Black reformers pushed for racial justice — so the pattern is widespread but not universal.
