The equality of all people was something the government had been struggling with around that time before the movement started as well, so it would make sense that it was such a relevant topic.]]> 2022-03-15 20:06:36 UTC https://padlet.com/21153411/dn9lq4hzqs67qy4r/wish/2096711197 21153411 https://padlet.com/21153411/dn9lq4hzqs67qy4r/wish/2100304029 This ideal is relevant to this movement as the government was controlling women's rights and abilities at the time. The movement focuses on suffrage, something the government had been denying to women for a while, which shows that the government had too much power over citizens than the ideals entail. ]]> 2022-03-17 15:28:19 UTC https://padlet.com/21153411/dn9lq4hzqs67qy4r/wish/2100304029
