    If I were to ask you‚ “ What has changed in our country between the 1800s to today”‚ what would you say? Two changes stick out to me. The first is gender. How men and women behave and are treated in society has changed drastically. The second change is mental illness. Back then people who had mental illnesses and disorders were considered mentally insane or inhuman.

Women were treated as inferior to men and were not given the same equality that men were. Women did not have the right to vote. All men could vote at the time‚ even the different races.
