Question for research

  • I am learning about Women's rights.
  • because I want to find out how much Carrie Chapman Catt and the Women Voter's Leauge
  • In order to understand just how important they were to the rights of women and the current political system today. I would also like to know how much pull women have in the election today.
  • How did Carrie Chapman Catt and the Women Voter's leauge change the face of politics for the modern women? What kind of lasting effect did their actions have on the country and women's rights?

  1. You want to be careful about considering "lasting effects" in your question because that will require an awful lot of research about modern times that I think goes beyond the scope of what we're asking you to do in this project. Instead, focus on the immediate impact of Catt and the LWV. How impactful were they in getting the 19th Amdmt passed and did it ultimately have the results that they wanted? In other words, did their actions result in more than additional voting rights or not? Did it bring about equality in other arenas aside from voting?
