Insites from reading new document

Hello again!

I was told by my professor to write about the difference between the old article and the new one we just read.  That’s kind of hard but also kind of easy –if I state the obvious things. Like when each one was written.  Also the format is very different. The one is an interview and the other is more of a sermon that was given by Lucrita Mott and very religious while the other one is very bold and has use of ‘colorful’ words.

I learned from the new paper that the situation has changed in some ways.  Women are now allowed to vote and aren’t treated like property by their husbands when they get married.  They also have more rights in the work place.

Woman can now wear what they please, talk how they wish and tell jokes. It’s a lot different from how it used to be.

Gloria seems to think that there is no movement anymore it’s really just people fighting for what they believe is right and how it should be done. I agree with this to degree. I believe there is still a group. They work to make things better for woman and make it equal like it’s supposed to be like the bible says. Lucretia Mott lived by that saying. It had a very high importance to her.

Also if there was no such change woman would still not be able to vote, attend meetings, dress how they want, speak how they want and they would still be a slave to their husband. Today the woman can work, she can speak for herself she can do what she pleases! The main thing is she gets treated slightly different and she gets paid less still then a man does. But it has improved greatly over time.
