Running head: THE WOMEN’S RIGHTS MOVEMENT The Women’s Rights Movement NAME Rasmussen College Author Note This paper is being submitted on July 12, 2018 for Beth Stewart. G142/SYG1000 Section 02 Introduction to Sociology - Online Plus - 2018 Summer 1 THE WOMEN’S RIGHTS MOVEMENT 2 The Women’s Rights Movement The social movement I have chosen to do my course project on is the Women's Rights Movement. The reason I have decided to do my project on the Women’s Rights Movement is because firstly I am a women and because women in the past have had to do a lot to become seen as equal to men. I picked this movement because I feel I will find it most interesting to learn about. As of right now I do not know a whole lot about the Women’ Rights Movement but I am excited to learn. Some of the things I do know or assume about this movement is that women had to stand up to fight for things such as equal pay and maternity leave. While doing some research on the Rasmussen student library I have learned that the Women’s Rights Movement influenced women’s concept of their rule in the 19th-century. “During and following the Civil War, the women's rights movement was also closely allied with the constitutional reform movement, though unsuccessful in its goal of woman suffrage. And finally, during the 1870's, the women's rights movement became deeply involved in the interpretation of constitutional rights and moved toward greater political activism (DuBois, 1820-1878). I have also learned that women stood up in support of abortion rights and the passage of the Freedom of Choice Act during a 1992 rally in Washington, DC (Fried, 2013). I have never put much thought into before but I am glad that women have stood up for all women so that I can today have equal rights. I feel like women should be able to choose what happens to their bodies. Another article I found I found to be very interesting and knowledgeable about the Women’s Rights Movement. I have learned that upon ratification of the Nineteenth Amendment to the US Constitution granting women the right to vote, a few states assumed that women’s citizenship THE WOMEN’S RIGHTS MOVEMENT rights would automatically be extended to the jury box. But the majority of states continued to deny women access to this fundamental right. (Benford, 2015) 3 THE WOMEN’S RIGHTS MOVEMENT 4 Reference list Benford, R. D. (2015, December).

THE WOMEN’S RIGHTS MOVEMENT

The women's rights movement, through the use of concepts under the feminist
perspective, set the stage that would later lead women to enjoy rights that had been possessed
by the men for centuries but had been denied to them. The significance of the women's rights
movement is evident today. The campaign managed to set the stage which would further lead
to the passing of the Nineteenth Amendment which concerned the right to vote that would be
enjoyed by women. Some rights which had been denied to women in the past were also
granted because of the same movement (Bacon, 1986).
The women's rights movement using the feminist perspective sought to eradicate
gender stratification that had been evident. The gender stratification showed that there were a
lot of gender differences which was evident between men and women. This meant that the
men enjoyed certain privileges that were not possessed by the women. Additionally, it also
suggested that the men had power over the women. The beginning of the movement can be
traced back to the 19th century. The primary goal of the campaign was to secure a franchise
for the women, which would later give them the opportunity to enjoy individual rights which
had been denied to them but had not been denied to the men. Before the Civil War occurred,
the white men had secured their franchise since the states had allowed or extended it to them.
The securing of the franchise did not rely on the money the man had or the property
he owned. As a result, a campaign began with the primary aim of im...
