I think there is a very interesting relationship between \u201cThe Yellow Wall-Paper,\u201d and the videos about women’s suffrage in America.\u00a0 \u201cThe Yellow Wall-Paper\u201d shows the negative effects of forcing people into isolationism.\u00a0 I find it interesting how the narrator of \u201cThe Yellow Wall-Paper\u201d emphasizes how women can feel as if they are trapped behind metal bars.\u00a0 I think it is interesting how this connects to the women\u2019s suffrage movement.\u00a0 The inability to vote and express personal opinions in society can give off the feeling of being trapped.\u00a0 I see this as the major reason why women were able to unite across the country to try to create a better world for women to come.\u00a0 The video\u2019s show how difficult this was, but after reading \u201cThe Yellow Wall-Paper,\u201d I see why this movement was absolutely crucial for all women in America.<\/span><\/p>\n

The video\u2019s talk about how the constitution never explicitly stated women could not vote or have the same rights as men.\u00a0 The 15th amendment debatably set women back a step by allowing black men to vote before women.\u00a0 I personally see this as another step towards equality for everyone, but I see how this could be worrisome.\u00a0 This concept makes me wonder about the comparison between the female equality issues and racial equality issues.\u00a0 Black men were able to vote before women, but how does this impact inequality today.\u00a0 In theory, this would lead people to believe black men would have an advantage in today\u2019s society over women, because they received more rights earlier on.\u00a0 Based on a Pew Research study on gender and race wage gap (<\/span>https:\/\/www.pewresearch.org\/fact-tank\/2016\/07\/01\/racial-gender-wage-gaps-persist-in-u-s-despite-some-progress\/<\/span><\/a> ) black men do not out-earn white women in America today.\u00a0 This makes me believe that females have more rapidly overcome inequality than racial minorities in America.\u00a0 We definitely have work to do in achieving equality for all groups, so it is important to understand what is happening in America today in order to achieve a greater America for both females and racial minorities.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
