This website is partially set as a question and answer type format which is very helpful in comprehending the material. In addition, pictures of all types of women are posted throughout the text. I like that the website is easy to access, read information, and create a citation for it because al the information is right infront of the reader. Overall, I would rate it at a 9/10 however it is all in black and white so it is a little bit boring to the eye. http://www.american-historama.org/1913-1928-ww1-prohibition-era/women-in-the-1920s.htm]]> 2017-11-28 15:16:16 UTC https://padlet.com/madelaineraeann/gzftxrthlbls/wish/210944546 madelaineraeann https://padlet.com/madelaineraeann/gzftxrthlbls/wish/212289800 This website has alot of information that covers more about Women in history. I like how the website is set up by different tabs the lead to different sections of information. The only real down fall of the website it that it gives information that is pretty basic and does not go into much detail. Truthfully, it would work well as a children's website however the orange and brown theme is not very attractive to the reader. Overall I would rate this website a 7/10 because of the fact that the information is sort of all over the place.

The most helpful part about the website is that there are multiple ways to get to the information needed from wherever you may be on the page. In addition, this websites has a nice time line of all the events that went on in the 1920s in addition to women's rights. https://thechangingrolesofwomen.weebly.com/]]> 2017-12-01 15:11:44 UTC https://padlet.com/madelaineraeann/gzftxrthlbls/wish/212295743 madelaineraeann https://padlet.com/madelaineraeann/gzftxrthlbls/wish/212296687 This connects because even today, women around the world are fighting to have the same privileges as men. Women are known to get paid less and not then seriously in the business world so this is similar to how it was in the 1920s as well. https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2014/sep/29/women-better-off-far-from-equal-men]]> 2017-12-01 15:13:27 UTC https://padlet.com/madelaineraeann/gzftxrthlbls/wish/212296687 madelaineraeann https://padlet.com/madelaineraeann/gzftxrthlbls/wish/212298425 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6STbnT32V2k]]> 2017-12-01 15:16:40 UTC https://padlet.com/madelaineraeann/gzftxrthlbls/wish/212298425 madelaineraeann https://padlet.com/madelaineraeann/gzftxrthlbls/wish/212300033

Most of these jobs are super easy going and stick to the role of what women were thought to be useful for. Also, it is rather ironic that a female had to edit this paper. Contrastingly, some people thought that this was more of a beneficial thing. Some saw this as a list of possibilities, not a limiting list. Personally, I would be upset that there was a list for all the things I could do in my life and that I was being limited to just that. Overall, most people saw this as a list of opportunities however I can see how it is degrading.

In this photo, they are specifically calling the president to attention. The government believed that the women were not smart enough to vote therefore should not have the right. This protest was outside the white house which is normally were more ciaos would happen. The sash worn by the women were purple and yellow. These colors represented women's suffrage and were worn during protests. In the back, men are following these women and often times threw objects and shouted out hurtful things in efforts to stop the women however they never gave up.

During this time, a law was passed that stated that each state has the choice of if women could vote or not. Some states were more open than others which did allow some in advancement in the overall goal of women suffrage. However, it was still clearly unfair that a couple people who represented a state ended up having the over all decision making power. This map helped aid in the hope pf women because it showed them the progress being made. Women prided themselves in making their hopes into a reality. This map helped them do so.

Up until the 1920's, the role of a women was strictly to take care of the house, children, and prepare food. Basic rights such as voting and having a job were not permitted which violated the basic rights every US citizen has regardless of gender or race. However, in the 1920's, women started to create organizations and fight for their right to vote and have more respect. The National Women's Party (NWP) as well as other organizations took different strategies of standing up for themselves in hopes to have the right to vote, just like men. Ways of protesting would consist of making flyers and signs expressing their right that was being taken from them. There were often times parades and marches that women off all different backgrounds participated in. Obviously people who didn't agree made it very clear and would threw food and other objects at the women as they protested. Sadly, many women were arrested for nothing and charged for pointless traffic violations. In jail women would go on hunger strikes and were force feed by the government which left a deeper fire in women to change the way things were. Thankfully, over time things changed and the 15th amendment allowed women the right to vote. Today women are facing adversity however the basic rights are now in full action. ]]> 2017-12-04 17:00:34 UTC https://padlet.com/madelaineraeann/gzftxrthlbls/wish/212955954 madelaineraeann https://padlet.com/madelaineraeann/gzftxrthlbls/wish/212963234 The changing role of women in the 1920s has shaped the way women are respected today. During the 1920s, women often worked in sewing factories which were not looked after very well. Safety hazards, such as fires, occurred often due to lack of safety regulations made by the government which opened the eyes of working women. So, women started to go on strike and refused to work which irritated businesses and the government to an extreme because there was no one to create products which eventually hurt the economy. Aside from the economy, the role of women started to switch up. Women started taking risks and often times let loose and partied often. These women were called flappers and they played a role in changing the view of women back then and shaped the view of women even today. Young ladies all the sudden had a optimistic view of their future, they dreamed to have the right to vote, the ability to dress as they please, and not being stuck at home being the house maid. The influence they had on women is actually still going on today! All types of women express themselves as they like and in most cases people are very excepting. Even the last presidential election a women was up for being voted president of the Nation. The changing role of women in the 1920s shaped the created the way we operate today and provided the nation a wake up call to the lack of respect women were and sometimes still are receiving. ]]> 2017-12-04 17:13:30 UTC https://padlet.com/madelaineraeann/gzftxrthlbls/wish/212963234
