Women and Slaves in the American Revolution

viernes, 8 de abril de 2011

 





Through history women and slaves have somthing in similar,both had no rights,but this had an end,for  women it all started this way Abigail Adams, wife of John Adams,she was in the right of saying that all women in the country needed rights.Womens roles became more valued for their aid in the revolution war and they got this name called "Republican Motherhood"or mothers for the new nation.They began with this ideas of the Revolution stimutlated hopes and expectations for equality and freedom.In some cases they gained the right of voting,however the voting  was limited gain of status.The right of suffrage was achieve gradually,during the nineteeth century and early tweenth century,this was culminate in 1920.Lots of years passed but they got what they wanted those rights that all human being has.

In the other hand slaves,although the slave trade itself was banned and in the northern states slavery was abolished ,this doesnt completely remove slavery and make them consider a "real person".Slavery was difficult to get removed,actually this disagreement brought United States go under a bloody Civil War.The South wanted slavery,the North disagree with that,so they both separated,was a bloody and horrible Civil War South vs North,Brothers and Sisters against themselves.When the South won United States unify again,and slavery was abolish,but this didnt mean that rascism was going to flourish.
