ESSAY ON: Women’s Progress

Number of Pages 3

This research paper: A 3 page overview of the activities of some of the women active between 1890 and 1990, particularly as they were affected by race, class and gender. Many insist on viewing the “women’s movement” as a phenomenon of the 1960s and early 1970s, as if until that time, no woman had had a thought of the notion of equality of the sexes. There was a difference of attitude then that had not been overwhelmingly evident in the past, to be sure. Seeking to accomplish the same ends, Jane Addams sought to work within the confines that existed in the late 19th century. In contrast, Betty Friedan sought to eliminate the confines that existed in the 1960s. In the years between, Nella Larsen, Ruby Bates, Victoria Price and Yoshiko Uchida also contributed to the attitudes that existed in the 1960s. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
