Case 7.03 Minority Rights
7.03 Minority Rights
Women
Wanted not only to be wives working at home but to have a career. Women wanted to be treated equally as men with respect.
But the media showed “wives” as being “happy” in their ordinary life working at home and showed “working women” as “sad” with their choice to work in a workplace.
So women began fighting how the society did not equal them as men. They demanded their rights that they believed they deserve. They fought over years, it was known as “battle of sexes”.
Native Americans
Wanted to be treated equally in the society by keeping their lands under their control safely and to stop any kind of law that might take their reservation land away.
But they were ignored in society. Native Americans were the poorest

    Women in the 1940's vs. Women in the Millianial

    This period (1940’s) was a time of many tumultuous changes for the nation in general, such as World War 1 and the Great depression. Each of these factors significantly influenced women’s roles in both the family and the work force. Expectations of women were greater and more settled in the 1940’s. Young women then were expected to marry at a young age, usually around eighteen years of age. Although you may think that that was too young of a time to marry, in my opinion it kept women from running around with many kids and no father. At least they were a family. Women were expected to work hard in factories and domestic services. However, most women were having duties at home doing chores, babysitting, educating their children and run the house while the husband was not there. Society thought that doing these things would be a “successful women” (Sophia Cassey,) which they were somewhat right. If you look at these women, they became very successful hardworking women, making money and still taking care of home and nothing has changed.…

    Affirmative Action Case

    Any case that reaches an upper level court all the way to Supreme Court, involves numerous political actors and parties supporting both sides of the case. First and foremost is the plaintiff, Abigail Fisher. She testified the violation of the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment based on her Caucasian race by the defendant, University of Texas at Austin. The University denied her admission even though she surpassed all requirements and fell into their top 10% guarantee for admission category. The President of the University, Bill Powers, argues that their use of affirmative action respects the rights of all students and is vital to maintaining the diversity that creates a beneficial learning environment on campus. Edward Baum, part of the American Enterprise Institute, is a republican that worked with Fisher on combatting this Affirmative Action case as he has many before in the past. Civil rights groups and individuals such as Baum, assist in swaying the courts to eliminate this factor in…

    How Did Women Affect America's Culture

    As mentioned by Debbie Reynolds in The Tender Trap (1955), “A women isn’t a women until she’s been married and had children” (pg 652). Education also further enforced these ideas. In school, girls were taught to knit, cook, type and etc; they were also told not to miss out on marriage by pursuing higher education and because of that, only one-third of college women completed their degrees. But there were changes under the way. Increasing number of women entered the workforce and by 1960s, twice as many women worked outside the home as compared to 1940s. One-third of the labor force was women and one out of three married women worked outside the home. Their median wage, however, was less than half that of men. Majorities actually work to augment family income, not to challenge stereotypes and because of that, they are willing to take low-prestige…

    Equal Rights In The United States

    Women wanted to achieve equal rights and they demanded they had every right to do a man's job. Feminism soon surfaced and they first sought to be able to vote. For decades, women formed groups to fight for their freedom and later they were able to accomplish this. During WW2, women were exposed to be able to work in a man's job. Many felt thrilled and independent to be able to work for themselves and to be able to earn their own money. This gave that extra push to fight for their right as a woman to vote and to be equal among both genders.…
