 Proof of having worked with an adult – this Wednesday (March 5)!  2 copies of the final – next Monday (March 10) – no lates!

 Post WWII, many men come home & retake jobs that were held by women. Women who keep working = suspicious.  White women = 60c for every $1; non-white = 42c.  Avg. age for marriage was 20 – ideal was to be a homemaker (home appliances!) & community member.  Increased rates of work blamed for alcoholism and increases in teen crime & pregnancy.  Life could feel boring.

 Like Civil Rights, many hoped for more than he delivered when he came into office.  Separate job lists for men & women.  Some states = no women on juries, husbands can demand sex and keep wife’s wages.  JFK has no women in the Cabinet, but appoints Eleanor Roosevelt to lead Commission on Women.  1963: The Feminine Mystique  1963: Equal Pay Act (doesn’t cover all workers)

 1964 Civil Rights Act ◦ Many angered that the gov’t doesn’t enforce it & some see themselves “losing” to African Americans (future feminist movements try to avoid putting non-white women in either/or position).  Many women see LBJ as too unresponsive so he forms the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC).  Increasingly, women call for more than job choice and equal pay – now call for policies benefitting women generally (ex: both abortion rights and high-quality childcare).

 The peak of the movement – there was a flurry of legislation, but little actual enforcement.  National Organization for Women (NOW) formed in ‘66, but becomes national name in Nixon era. ◦ Goals: push the gov’t to enforce legislation & pass an Equal Rights Amendment  Education Act of 1972 & Roe v. Wade (1973)  Some movement forward: Shirley Chisholm + 1 st female Army general  Nixon creates Task Force to recruit women into high-level government positions  Increasing split between New Left & Women’s Movement
