Earhart’s push for women’s rights and her encouragement for women to follow their dreams makes her a very influential twentieth century figure because she helped woman’s rights become more important and it helped make woman more powerful. Not only did she serve as an activist for women’s rights but she also set many aviation records, impacting the world in a major way. One of her biggest accomplishments was being the first aviators to make a quite dangerous flight over the Pacific Ocean. “In January 1935 she made a solo flight from Hawaii to California, a longer distance than that from the United States to Europe. Earhart was the first person to fly that dangerous route successfully; all previous attempts had ended in disaster” (Kuiper 270). By attempting and successfully making the trip, she impacted people’s views on aviation and on women aviators. People would be less scared to fly; making the aviation business more popular. Not only did she do this but she also was “the first to fly nonstop from Mexico City to Newark, New Jersey” (Amelia Earhart, The 20th Century).

Not only did she make successful trips but she was also very determined to fly and set new records. “...she had saved two thousand dollars to buy a three-cylinder Kinner Canary, a plane in which she…

Barnstormers were “the most exciting daredevils of their day” (Onkst). This was the first form of civil aviation in our recorded history, and these performers were the greatest fad of the mid 1920s. A growing factor of barnstorming was the ending of the first World War, veterans after the war wished to make their living flying.
