The parade was also segregated to earn more participants from the Southern United States. The parade failed, but they did not give up, and

Ja'Terrica Frazier Professor Eggert ENG 101 3/1/17 Defining Feminism G. D. Anderson said it the best, "Feminism isn't about making woman stronger. Women are already strong. It's about changing the way the world perceives that strength." Feminism is improving the inequality that women face. As women, we have come a long way from our catastrophic past, but we still have a long way to go before we are even deemed equal as the opposite sex. There are three historical areas of inequality in the feminist

Paragraph: On July 19, 1849, 300 people arrived for the Seneca Falls Convention. Similarly to the Declaration of Independence, they made the Declaration of Sentiments, which listed the acts of tyranny of men over women. Before this convention, women were not allowed to speak in most meetings. This angered many women, inspiring them to fight for women rights.

Women’s Rights: The Late 1860s and Today The gender roles in America have changed tremendously since the end of the American Civil War. Women and men, who once lived in separate spheres are now both contributing to American society. Women have gone from the housewife so playing key roles in the country's development in all areas.

This was a result of women being added to the previously male-only law act of having to carry pass documents wherever they go. The passes were now enforced over the entire black race.
