Men and women have equal rights today in america so do African-American's however, if there wasn't equal rights among us the people everyone would still be fighting for rights and we wouldn't be where we are today- the technology that has been created would be weaker means of transportation would waver and their would be less voting rights as well... Without equal rights it changes everything including society Norms we know that we have today. It also changes history.
