Have you ever heard of what women went through in the 1800's and early 1900's? Well, it was absolutely dreadful in every way! People treated women like they were limited to emotions and things that they could accomplish in life. They weren't allowed to wear pants which back then meant they were "dressing like a man," or not acting like a woman. In the mid 1800's, the law c overture was introduced. The law allowed men to make their wives decisions, they could tell their wives to go clean, make them dinner, and pick their clothes. Women were fighting for their own rights, so they could make their own decisions and accomplish what they wanted to do in life.
They decided they had to make a change. They protested and marched until they had blisters on their feet just so that the world could be a better place. Until in 1920s, when the 19th amendment was made official, women finally got the rights they deserved. The 19th amendment promised women they could vote and live the life they have always wanted to live. Which definitely let women shine bright like they deserve.

Women's Suffrage

Words by Noelle Darius

Women have suffered for many years like how they weren't able to vote at one point of time. In 1920 on August 18, congress passed the 19th amendment to allow women to vote.

Before the 19th amendment, women didn't have the right to vote, but women didn't just sit there and do nothing about it. They fought for their equal rights by protesting, picketing and even getting arrested. The is called The Women's Suffrage Movement.

Women did this because they wanted to have equal rights. Only men were allowed to vote, but women weren't, and that was unfair. Congress, which was made up of men, thought that it was fair and denied women the right to vote.

No one gave women the respect that they deserved for having to cook all the time, take care of babies all by themselves, and clean the house constantly.
