Summary

Philanthropist Jane Addams opened Hull House in 1889 and dedicated her life to those less fortunate.

In 1903, she gave a speech in Chicago dedicated to the spirit of Washington, Lincoln, and other great men. She challenged us all to look inward, then outward, and find ways to make our communities better.

"What is a great man? He is a man who has looked through the confusion of the moment and has listened to his conscience."
