Answer:Women’s rights leaders felt disappointed that their hard-won fight for suffrage did not bring about immediate equality with men in all areas of American life. In 1921, Alice Paul, head of the National Woman’s Party, charged that “women today . . . are still in every way subordinate [inferior] to men before the law, in the professions, in the church, in industry, and in the home.” In many states women still could not serve on juries, make contracts, or control their own earnings. Also, federal courts had ruled that the 14th Amendment’s guarantee of “equal protection of the laws” did not apply to women. In 1923, Paul began lobbying Congress to consider a new constitutional amendment that would guarantee equal rights for women.

How does Dove's use of imagery in this passage

nordsb [41]

Answer:

It provides a hopeful image that suggests that Kahlo was not restrained by her condition.

Explanation:

From the attached image, we can understand that Kahlo was injured and broke her spine in several places and despite several surgeries, she would live with pain for the rest of her life and would require a corset to hold her spine in place.

The excerpt from the poem says,

"who painted herself a present

wildflowers entwining the plastic corset

her spine resides in, that flaming pillar"

We can see that the imagery depicts a hopeful image that Kahlo is not restrained or held back by her condition because she "painted herself a present" and the line about wildflowers shows that while the situation is an unplanned one, she still has hope as she describes her spine as a "flaming pillar".

A wildflower is a flower that grows in the wild that was not planted by anyone and it symbolizes the forced condition of wearing the corset
