Hi!the women's movement board goals included equal access to education and employment, equality within marriage, and a married woman's right to her own property and wages, custody over her children and control over her own body.It became successful because Record numbers of women ran for and started winning political office.
We began to learn there was no shame in who we are or where we come from. Our heritage is just as great and diverse as everyone else's. College courses were developed based on our literature and history. No longer did we have to plead or beg to be legally seen as equals, our people demanded it, by politically educating and organizing.
