The film, Suffragette looks at the struggles the women who fought for the right to vote went through. The film takes place in London 1912, prior to women having the right to vote. As a result, women's rights were not valued as much. Caffi states that "Every social institution should have as its sole reason for being that of assuring the happiness of the man conscious of his own individuality" (Caffi 1970). A man's happiness, needs, and desires at this time were much more valuable than a woman's.…

Freedom of thought hasn't always been accessible for women. In the 19th century women were belittled and restricted from expressing their thoughts and feelings. And when a woman did express any form of emotion other than obedience, she was labeled as insane. Ernest Hemingway gave a reporter a perfect response of sexism over a friend's breakup, ¨But why couldn’t he have told her to go to hell? Because she was sick. It’s being sick makes them act so bloody awful usually and it’s because they’re…

However, it took not only many years to be passed, but many riots, speech, and letters that were directed to the congress. One of the main speeches that played a key role in creating the…

The Battle Hymn of the Republic is a song made by Julia Ward Howe by using the song “John Brown’s Body.” However Julia was also an advocate to abolitionism for women’s rights and their suffrage.

For as long as we can remember, women have always been degraded. We can date back all the way to the earliest civilizations, such as the Spartans and Athens and see documented proof that women had practically no rights. Throughout history it was always kept like this, that is until women took a stand and started to fight for their suffrage. Through the Antebellum period and the Second Industrial Revolution there were many advocates for women’s rights, until the United States finally passed the…
