USA CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT Other groups

Smart Start Why are other groups sometimes not mentioned as much or at all when discussing the Civil Rights Movement? What are some other groups impacted by this movement?

1. Feminist Movement Feminism- the belief that women should have economic, political, and social equality with men. By 1960 40% of women worked outside of the home but were experiencing wage discrimination Women were being paid far less than men for doing the same job

Women’s Movement Betty Friedan – 1963 The Feminist Mystique Lead to Women joining together to fight for their equal rights National Organization of Women (NOW) 1966 Title IX Gloria Steinem – journalist - politics

NOW Helped segregate classified employment ads for men and women Changed airline rules (required women to retire at the age of 32) Worked to help women entering the workforce Equal Rights for Women Jobs, education, and marriage

Equal Pay Act of 1963 Report that uncovered though women were much of a growing part of the workforce that they were paid less than men (performing same jobs, etc) The act was passed to prohibit employers from paying women less Did this stop the discrimination? Why or why not? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vs_avU7Nv0c

Equal Rights Amendment ERA 1972 First introduced to congress in 1923 by Alice Paul Equal rights cannot be denied because of sex/gender If passed would change the traditional roles of society and eventually lead to the breakdown of the family. Not enough states passed for it to be amended

Women still made progress Higher Education Gained more job opportunities Higher level positions Politics (Sandra Day O’Connor, Condoleezza Rice, Hilary Clinton)

Roe v Wade One of the most controversial issues NOW and feminist supported Supreme Court ruled women had the right to choose an abortion during the 1st three months of pregnancy Prior to this abortion had been illegal and were being performed illegally
