Fairness for all教案
nevertheless by 1900 women had won the right to vote in several states,and in 1920 the nineteenth amendment to the constitution granted them the right to vote throughout the united states.by the time many women were attending college,and increasing numbers were entering professions which had before been forbidden to women.a limited number of women even held high academic and government positions.in spite of all this progress,“career women” were largely limited to teaching,nursing,and office work.
the women’s liberation movement,which developed during the 1960’s,has focused on economic rights such as “equal pay for equal work”.the main purpose of women’s liberation is to free women from the limited role which society has given to them.it seeks to enable them to choose between a career and the home or to choose the two.it claims that society as a whole would benefit if every person were allowed to develop his or her abilities and use them to the full.women’s liberation believes that the statement in the united states declaration of independence,“all men are created equal!” really means “all human beings are created equal”.
