Alice Paul and the Ratification of the 19th Amendment

“Deeds, not words!” Inspired by the resilient and the strong-willed Emmeline Prankhurt, Alice Paul was a force of its own in the attainment of women’s right in an America where such a notion alone was facetious. While most women were content with the state of things back then, cocooned in their quaint and dainty lifestyle. Alice Paul wanted to bring change, the sort of change that would put women on an equal footing with men and give them the opportunity and the liberty to say what they wanted to say. For this purpose alone, she fought, day in and day out to ensure that women had the right to vote and bring constitutional change in the country. After years of toil and suffering Alice Paul succeeded in her efforts and women were granted the right to vote under the 19th amendment of the Bill of right, which was ratified on August 18, 1920 ADDIN ZOTERO_ITEM CSL_CITATION {"citationID":"yxybbNT3","properties":{"formattedCitation":"(Zahniser & Fry, 2014)","plainCitation":"(Zahniser & Fry, 2014)","noteIndex":0},"citationItems":[{"id":934,"uris":["http://zotero.org/users/local/0omESN17/items/HW99W2XY"],"uri":["http://zotero.org/users/local/0omESN17/items/HW99W2XY"],"itemData":{"id":934,"type":"book","title":"Alice Paul: Claiming Power","publisher":"Oxford University Press, USA","ISBN":"0-19-995842-4","author":[{"family":"Zahniser","given":"Jill Diane"},{"family":"Fry","given":"Amelia R."}],"issued":{"date-parts":[["2014"]]}}}],"schema":"https://github.com/citation-style-language/schema/raw/master/csl-citation.json"} (Zahniser & Fry, 2014)
