The history of women's rights is certainly not over. Winning the right to vote was only the first step women took to secure equality under the law.

It is so imperative for young adults to comprehend the hardships endured to provide civil rights to all men and women, black and white. The legacies are endless and must be acknowledged before individual political action can take on an entirely new meaning.
