Women were affected because they were not allowed to vote in elections in America until about August 18, 1920. The suffrage movement had caught a wave of attention and support from the Congress. It was a women's movement that took decades long. It was a fought for women voting rights and took nearly 100 years for them to get enough support to drive change. The 19th Amendment was ratified in congress giving Women the freedom to vote on that day. The 19th stated, " the right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex.". Before it was passed in Congress, there was a statement that only all men could vote. Even in that case black men still couldn't vote. After the passing of the 19th at least women could vote, but that did not include black women. It wasn't until 1965 when The 1965 Voting Rights Act allowed black women in the South to be able to vote.

We hear it, before, behind–
Of the way in which “We, as women,”
Are going to lift mankind!
   With our white frocks starched and ruffled,
And our soft hair brushed and curled–
Hats off! for “We, as women,”
Are coming to save the world.
    Fair sisters! listen one moment–
And perhaps you‘ll pause for ten:
The business of women as women
Is only with men as men!
    What we do, “We, as women,”
We have done all through our life;
The work that is ours as women
Is the work of mother and wife.
    But to elevate public opinion,
And to lift up erring man,
Is the work of the Human Being;
Let us do it–if we can.
    But wait, warm-hearted sisters–
Not quite so fast, so far.
Tell me how we are going to lift a thing
Any higher than we are!
    We are going to “purify politics,”
And to “elevate the press.”
We enter the foul paths of the world
To sweeten and cleanse and bless.
     To hear the high things we are going to do,
And the horrors of man we tell,
One would think, “We, as women,” were angels,
And our brothers were fiends of hell.
      We, that were born of one mother,
And reared in the self-same place,
In the school and the church together,
We of one blood, one race!
     Now then, all forward together!
But remember, every one,
That ‘tis not by feminine innocence
The work of the world is done.
     The world needs strength and courage,
And wisdom to help and feed–
When, “We, as women” bring these to man,
We shall lift the world indeed
