Women's Equality in America (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

Since its inception, the women's equality movement in America has been criticized for moving too slowly, moving too quickly, being too demanding, or not being demanding enough. Some of its goals have aroused passionate opposition in those who believed women's equality contradicted not only basic human biology, but also the word of God. Women's Equality in America: Examining the Facts synthesizes these various arguments into an accessible, comprehensive review of the important facts. Covering major historical turning points and important historical figures, from those who led and attended the Seneca Falls women's rights convention in 1848 to the organizers of the #MeToo movement, this book delves deep into the issues and their complexities. Written in vivid prose and with a keen eye for detail, the author goes beyond reciting dry dates and facts as she brings to life an important cast of historical and contemporary women who have fought for, and will continue to fight for, women's rights and equality in America.
