jan 1, 1920 - 19th Amendment
Description:
In 1920, the 19th Amendment to the Constitution was ratified which gave all women the right to vote. This development signifies a change in American society that showed that America was becoming a less sexist society. While sexism would persist far after this amendment, the right to vote was a major step in the fight towards equality.Citation: Schultz, Kevin M. HIST5. Boston, MA: Cengage Learning, 2019.
