Summary

         The Nineteenth Amendment is all about giving women the opportunity to vote. In the 1830's, a lot of women went through a lot just to get this amendment ratified. They marched, wrote, and lectured to accomplish what many people thought wasn't possible. It was really hard for them because a lot of people, especially men, thought that all they should do was cook and do house work. The women thought that if they could get educated, then why couldn't they vote? So, they fought and fought until it was finally introduced to Congress in 1878. It was finally ratified in 1920.
