H12 ch 20_womensrights_2013
This document discusses the history of women's rights from the early 20th century through the late 20th century. It describes how, in the early 1900s, women in many parts of the world had very limited roles and rights. They had little access to education, employment, property rights, or suffrage. Starting around the 1920s, industrialization created more jobs for women. The women's suffrage movement gained successes in the UK, US, and other Western nations through the 1920s. World War I further opened opportunities as women took over men's civilian jobs. Advances in contraception in the 1960s increased women's control over their reproductive rights. However, equality was still lacking, and struggles continued into the late 20

National Women's History Museum is pleased to present a new mini exhibit featuring a few of the women who have run for president.
Aspiring to be president is symbolic of a country that believes in equality of opportunity and achievement. And that is why women began running for president long before women were allowed to vote. Many women have run since the first woman declared herself in 1884. Each has paved the way for the next, irrespective of party or platform. These are a few. Though they may have been the first to announce, to campaign, to raise money, or to win a primary, they will not be the last.

The Rise of Christian Persecution In Islamic Countries
Christian persecution in Islamic countries has intensified, with alarming incidents of violence, discrimination, and intolerance. This article highlights recent attacks in Nigeria, Pakistan, Egypt, Iran, and Iraq, exposing the multifaceted challenges faced by Christian communities. Despite the severity of these atrocities, the Western world's response remains muted due to political, economic, and social considerations. The urgent need for international intervention is underscored, emphasizing that without substantial support, the future of Christianity in these regions is at grave risk.
