Explanation:

There are many different versions or waves of feminism in the history of this critique that draws attention to the gendered nature of our social system. Scholars generally divide American feminism into three waves or historical periods: American first-wave feminism was the period that ended with passage of the 19th Amendment to the US Constitution, granting women the right to vote in 1920. Second-wave feminism of the 1960s-1980s was shaped by the Civil Rights Movement and focused on issues of equality and discrimination in the workplace. Third-wave feminism began in the early 1990s, as a response to the limitations of second wave feminism and its initiatives. The third wave of feminism tried to deepen its critique by challenging the definitions of femininity that emerged out of the second-wave and tries to account for more diversity. It is argued that second-wave and first-wave feminism over-emphasized the experiences of upper middle-class white women and eclipsed the experiences of women of color.
