One specific HISTORICAL DEVELOPMENT that led to a change in women's roles in the 1920s was the RATIFICATION of the 19TH AMENDMENT.
WHAT WAS THE 19TH AMENDMENT?
It was an AMENDMENT to the U.S. CONSTITUTION that guaranteed women the right to vote - a right they had been
campaigning for, for decades.
As a result of this amendment, WOMEN played a bigger role in POLITICS in the 1920s by electing those who would pass favorable laws for women and related causes.
