Why are women treated differently from men? In Feminism: The March Toward Equal Rights for Women, middle and high schoolers take a long look at the history of feminism and meet several key historical figures who helped bring about the different waves of the movement. Through essential questions, primary sources, and investigative projects, readers develop a comprehensive understanding of the struggle that began many decades ago, compared and contrasted with the struggle that continues today.
