Women Rights

Create a call to action poster/mailing flyer to encourage individuals to join the women’s rights movements

Consider:

“You can’t protect your rights if you don’t know how you got them”

And

“You can’t fight for your rights if you don’t know who is attacking them”

Instructions:

DO NOT argue politics, use historical evidence and campaigns to develop an argument. 

CONVINCE your readers that the suffrage cause and women’s rights was and remains legitimate and needed.  

BE creative and have fun with this.
