The Suffragettes

The suffragettes were a group of women who fought for the right to vote in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. They faced ridicule, arrest, and even violence, but they never gave up on their goal. In 1920, they finally achieved their goal when the 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution was passed, granting women the right to vote.

The Civil Rights Leaders

The civil rights leaders were a group of activists who fought for the rights of African Americans in the United States in the mid-20th century. They faced discrimination, segregation, and violence, but they never gave up on their goal of achieving equality for all. In 1964, they achieved a major victory when the Civil Rights Act was passed, outlawing discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.
