Questions to be addressed in your Essay 3 Assignment:

Ruth Rosen:

1.  In what ways did the modern women’s movement change America?  What was and was not accomplished?  What explains the lack of accomplishment?

2.  What barriers did women face in the 1950s and 1960s?  How did the women’s movement face and challenge those barriers?  In what ways was the movement successful and what limitations were seen?

How to provide proper citation:  When you are writing an essay and using specific examples from the sources

you must introduce the source you are using, provide the paraphrased, summarized, or quoted material and then provide the page number from where that material is drawn at the end of the sentence in which it appears. It would look something like this:  For instance, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, concerned with achieving the vote for women, used the Declaration of Independence as the basis of the Declaration of Sentiments, presented at the Seneca Falls Convention (par. 2). Or something like this:  According to Jean Matthews, the new woman…  (p. 42).
