This resource book provides tools for investigating and critically analyzing the evolution of the organized movement for women's rights in the United States throughout history. For teachers wanting to give their students the whole story of the movement for women's rights in the United States, Conflict and Compromise: Women's Movement offers a unique and engaging solution. Combining expert research and engaging activities, the resource book ranges from the beginnings of the women's movement in the 1830s to the era of the 1970s. Coverage centers primarily on two defining moments: the debate over excluding female suffrage from the Fifteenth Amendment in the 1870s (which gave the vote to African American men) and the emergence of women's liberation groups in the 1960s. By focusing on these moments, teachers can help students understand the difficulty women have had in securing greater equality, as well as ways in which contemporary political and social events profoundly shaped the women's movement as a whole. * 75 primary sources, including 1960s women's movement posters, photos of leaders in the women's movement at national conferences, a Ms. magazine cover from 1972, a court transcript from Susan B. Anthony's trial, and dozens of political cartoons related to women and the fight over the Fifteenth Amendment * Classroom activities include role-playing Susan B. Anthony's trial, working in small groups to review various political cartoons representing outspoken women in the late 1800s, and a simulation of the launch of the women's liberation movement * A "Throughout History" section provides a narrative chronology of the women's movement from the 1830s to the present
