Northlake College American Womens Rights Movement Discussion

Description

Rationale: No idea is more fundamental to the American sense of self than freedom. To the United States, freedom and liberty are interchangeable and seemingly universal. However, that is misleading. Freedom is not fixed or alone definition; rather, it is an ideal as well as a reality. It also defines American identity as a collective and as individual groups within the country.

Question: Evaluate the American women’s rights movement in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. What was the extent to which the ratification of the Nineteenth Amendment to the Constitution, which guaranteed women the right to vote, marked a turning point in the United States women’s history? How have subsequent efforts in the last fifty years advanced the movement? Explain your argument.
