The Women’s Movement 1880- 1919 Suffragists in Arkansas Emmeline Pankhurst

Women in the Work Force (17.2) Farm Women: roles did not change Women in Industry: Excluded from unions, but found good paying jobs in the city By the turn of the century, 1 of every 5 women held jobs, 25% of them in manufacturing 50% in garment working 50% of the pay men received for the same job

Women in the Workforce II Women also found jobs in offices, stores, schools By 1890 there were more women with high school diplomas than men Domestic Workers: 70% of women workers in 1870 were servants.

Women Lead Reform Triangle Shirtwaist Factory tragedy led to more women pushing for reform Women’s clubs grew into reform groups that pushed for these changes Women’s colleges were established during this time (Vassar, Smith, Wellesley). Marriage was not the only alternative for women anymore.

NACW National Association of Colored Women Josephine St. Pierre– first VP of the NACW NACW National Association of Colored Women Managed nurseries, reading rooms, kindergartens Focused on the education of African American women Mary Church Terrell– first President of the NACW

Susan B. Anthony Pushed for women’s suffrage Founded the NWSA (National Women Suffrage Association)– later the NAWSA

Suffrage Strategy 1. Convince state legislatures to grant women the right to vote (success in Wyoming in 1869 followed by Utah, Colorado, and Idaho in the 1890s). 2. Pursue court cases to test the 14th Amendment (all male citizens could vote)—Weren’t women citizens as well? 3. Push for a national constitutional amendment to give women the right to vote.

Women Win Suffrage! (17.5) The suffrage movement gained strength again in the early 1900s Now there were more college educated women who began to push for reform Suffrage groups went door to door to push for change Trolley tours– women spoke in public from trolleys to generate support Studied suffrage movement tactics in other countries and adapted them to the US movement

Women Win Suffrage! (17.5) 2 Carrie Chapman Catt— organized the movement on a national scale Some women picketed the White House Others supported the soldiers during WWI by knitting socks or selling war bonds This showed women’s patriotism & desire to be involved. Congress passed the 19th Amendment (women’s suffrage) in 1919, 72 years after the Seneca Falls convention where women convened to first demand the right to vote.
