In the 1970s, women’s rights activists worked to secure the passage of?

a. Title IX
b. the Civil Rights Act
c. the Voting Rights Act
d. the Equal Rights Amendment

Answer 1

Answer:

D. The Equal Rights Amendment

Explanation:

In “What It Would Be Like If Women Win,” from August 31, 1970, Steinem writes:

“In Women’s Lib Utopia, there will be free access to good jobs – and decent pay for the bad ones women have been performing all along, including housework. Increased skilled labor might lead to a four-hour workday, and higher wages would encourage further mechanization of repetitive jobs now kept alive by cheap labor. … Schools and universities will help to break down traditional sex roles, even when parents will not. Half the teachers will be men, a rarity now at preschool and elementary levels; girls will not necessarily serve cookies or boys hoist up the flag.”

At the time the article was written, the ERA (Equal Rights Amendment) was holding a 51% majority in the political climate.
