Background – Women’s Rights Movement Emerges from the Abolitionist Movement
While individuals expressed their dissatisfaction with the social role of women during the early years of the United States, a more widespread effort in support of women’s rights began to emerge in the 1830s. Women and men joined the antislavery movement in order to free enslaved Africans. While men led antislavery organizations and lectured, women were not allowed to hold these positions. When women defied these rules and spoke out against slavery in public, they were mocked. In the late 1830s, abolitionists (who called for an immediate end to slavery rather than a gradual one) began to advocate for women’s rights as well. Women gained experience as leaders, organizers, writers, and lecturers as part of this radical wing of the movement. The discrimination they continued to face eventually prompted them to band together to promote a new, separate women’s rights movement.

Final Exam Questions:
Option A: Over the twentieth century, the United States fought numerous wars, including two World Wars. These conflicts transformed both American society and nations around the world. How did the experience of war and armed conflict impact America over the twentieth century? What did those transformations look like and why were they important? In answering this question, consider not just the experience of fighting in armed conflict but also how war changed American society domestically and within the borders of the US. (You may include the Spanish-American War in answering this question, but the answer to this question should focus on the events in the twentieth century).
Option B: American politics drifts between periods of liberal and conservative governance. Identify a time period (or periods) that was liberal and time period (or periods) that was conservative. What was different about them? How do times of liberal governance differ from times of conservative governance? How have the political traditions of American liberalism and conservatism changed over the twentieth century? Who were some key figures and events that led to those periods of liberal or conservative political power?
Option C: Throughout the semester, we have looked at various social movements, organized efforts led by Americans, often involving themselves in politics, dedicated to bringing about change in American society. What have been some of those social movements that have impacted the course of modern US history? What were their aims, and were they successful in achieving their goals? In your answer, consider the issue of moderate versus radical politics and how the difference between the two is something that social movements often have to deal with in attempting to transform America.
