Women’s rights have always been an issue in America’s history. It has always been argued if women should have the same rights as men, or have the same treatment. Through prejudice and agony, women have tried to prove themselves to be as valuable as men. In the American Civil War, an important event in the history of the United States, women played a major role. During the American Civil War, women dedicated their time and effort to, not only take over the obligations at home, but also working as spies and even nurses.
Using Second to None: a Documentary History of American Women edited by Ruth Barnes Moynihan, Cynthia Russet, and Laurie Crumpacker, Civil War America: Voices from the Home Front by James Marten, and primary articles, this investigation will analyze how the women’s privileges changed Post-Civil War and whether they changed for their benefit or for their detriment.
Very good. I clearly understand the topic you are planning to write about. I'm eager to see what the rest of your essay will look like.
ReplyDeleteI would not go as far to say that it was very good, but you are on the right track. I do have a few suggestions to help ensure your success on this part of the project:
ReplyDelete1. What methods are you going to use to research analyzing primary sources, documentaries, statistical data, speeches, etc.
2. Why are you even investigating this topic? Why is it important? What are you trying to prove
3. Is there anything about women in the Civil War that will be excluded?
