Unit 8 – The Postwar Period and Cold War, 1945–1980
Topic 8.1
How might U.S. society differ today had women's suffrage not been granted in 1920 with the passage of the 19th Amendment?
There would likely be no significant differences in modern U.S society.
Society would probably be more patriarchal, but otherwise unchanged.
Political policy could potentially be more male-centered with less emphasis on issues like education and healthcare.
Women would most likely still not have voting rights in many states today.
