TEKS 8C: Calculate percent composition and empirical and molecular formulas. Chapter 23.2: Women's Rights in the 1960s–1970s

TEKS 8C: Calculate percent composition and empirical and molecular formulas. The struggle for women’s rights began with the Declaration of Sentiments at Seneca Falls in the 1840s. The first wave of feminism culminated in the 1920s, when women won the right to vote. However, women made little legal or social headway in the decades that followed. The long history of the struggle for women’s rights:

TEKS 8C: Calculate percent composition and empirical and molecular formulas. The civil rights struggles of the 1960s prompted women to examine their roles and rights in American society. They rejected the stereotypical view of women as housewives. They analyzed how society discriminated against women. They sought equality in jobs and job training. This gave rise to the second wave of feminism.

TEKS 8C: Calculate percent composition and empirical and molecular formulas. In 1963, journalist and housewife Betty Friedan wrote The Feminine Mystique, a book that helped to launch the feminist movement. Friedan helped to establish NOW, the National Organization for Women.

TEKS 8C: Calculate percent composition and empirical and molecular formulas. Passage of the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) Protecting women’s reproductive rights NOW attacked stereotypes of women in the media and called for more balanced roles in marriages. NOW’s goal was to achieve “true equality for all women.” NOW identified 2 main priorities:

TEKS 8C: Calculate percent composition and empirical and molecular formulas. The Equal Rights Amendment was a proposed Constitutional amendment to guarantee equality between men and women. Political conservatives such as Phyllis Schlafly (a conservative political activist who opposed the women’s movement) opposed the ERA, arguing it would hurt families and allow the military to draft women. In the end, the ERA narrowly failed to become part of the Constitution.

TEKS 8C: Calculate percent composition and empirical and molecular formulas. In 1973, the Supreme Court’s decision in Roe v. Wade granted women the right to legal abortions. Before this decision, most states outlawed or restricted abortion. Roe remains a controversial and divisive decision today.

TEKS 8C: Calculate percent composition and empirical and molecular formulas. Some women tried to change awareness through mass media. The journalist Gloria Steinem helped cofound Ms., a feminist magazine. Its title was meant to protest the social custom of identifying women by their marital status. She became the most famous feminist leader of the 1970s.

TEKS 8C: Calculate percent composition and empirical and molecular formulas. NOW filed many lawsuits with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission to stop workplace discrimination. Title IX of the 1972 Higher Education Act banned discrimination in education. In 1974, the Equal Opportunity Credit act made it illegal to deny a woman credit because of her gender. The women’s rights movement made legal progress in the 1960s and 1970s.

TEKS 8C: Calculate percent composition and empirical and molecular formulas. Over 60 percent of women now work. Medicine, law, accounting, and other traditionally male fields now routinely accept women. Women play a larger role in today’s workforce.
