After reading the first few chapters, Chapter 3:Slowing the Momentum for Women’s Rights particularly caught my interest. This chapter gives us a lot of information on how the media played a powerful role in determining where women stood in society. Various different newspapers played little to no mind to the idea of women’s rights and belittling it whenever brought to their attention. What surprises me most is that these events took place not too long ago; it is quite amazing how dramatically our society has improved throughout our recent past, now giving women the right and ability to achieve more than ever before and placing women in the position of being equal or even greater to men. This chapter also involves many well-known leaders and explains how they used and were affected by the media of their time.
