Claudia Goldin - Why Women Won

How, when, and why did women in the US obtain legal rights equal to men’s, decades after they gained the right to vote? Of the 155 critical moments in women’s rights history from 1905 to 2023, almost half occurred between 1963 and 1973. Claudia Goldin, Henry Lee Professor of Economics at Harvard University, explains how the civil rights movement and the somewhat fortuitous nature of the early and key women’s rights legislation were behind the advances and then how a substantial group of women emerged in the late 1970s to champion a different vision for women.
This event took place on September 26, 2023 at the College of the Holy Cross.

If the US civil rights movement is the causal factor, why did the same process happen in other countries, sometimes before it did in the USA?

Rights to speak and say how we feel! Treated with respect and decently with out being judge or criticise! And should be equal pay! Bless day!

Why well done! Now extend all such privileges and powers, to the rest of the women of the world also.
