Written in vivid prose and with a keen eye for detail, Women's
Equality in America is a valuable resource for understanding the
issues and trends that dominate public discourse in discussions of
women's rights and gender equality in America. Since its inception,
the women's equality movement in America has been criticized for
moving too slowly, moving too quickly, being too demanding, or not
being demanding enough. Some of its goals have aroused passionate
opposition in those who believed women's equality contradicted not
only basic human biology, but also the word of God. Meanwhile,
Americans voice starkly different opinions about where women stand
in their quest for equality in American workplaces, classrooms,
boardrooms, and homes. Women's Equality in America: Examining the
Facts presents sensibly organized and accurate summaries of the
relevant facts concerning all of these claims and counterclaims.
But while the volume is primarily concerned with providing an
accurate picture of the state of women's equality in the 21st
century, it also provides vital contextual coverage of major
historical turning points and important historical figures, from
leaders of the Seneca Falls women's rights convention in 1848 to
the organizers of the #MeToo movement.
