a) Women’s Suffrage Movement

Led by Susan B. Anthony and others, the Women’s Suffrage Movement gained significant traction during the Gilded Age. This movement advocated for women’s right to vote, challenging traditional gender roles and demanding equal participation in the democratic process. The efforts of suffragettes resulted in increasing public support for women’s suffrage, leading to the eventual ratification of the 19th Amendment in 1920, which granted women the right to vote. The movement was a crucial part of the broader struggle for gender equality in the United States.
