For the purpose of my historical research analysis, I would like to focus upon the topic of the Women’s Suffrage Movement and the Nineteenth Amendment. The issue of suffrage and the demand for the right to vote has been one of the crucial pursuits of the early feminists. During this phase of liberal feminism, the women activists were also more in favor of adopting legal and moderate strategies for the mobilization of the state and law in favor of women emancipation, than the radical feminists. The passage of the Nineteenth Amendment was indeed a watershed event in the history of women’s struggle, which continues even today. As an individual situated in the 21st century, it might seem to be rather absurd that women were not considered to be full citizens, entitled to full citizenship privileges; however, for feminists back then, it was a leviathan battle.
