Davis, Flora. Moving the Mountain: The Womens Movement in America
since 1960. Simon & Schuster, 1991.
The point of this book is to provide information on the womens movement in
America from 1960 to the 1990s. This book provides such topics as the birth
of womens liberation, feminist and family issues, the womens movement in
the 1980s, and the future of feminism beyond the 1990s. This book is taking
an unbiased approach at a topic that can be difficult to understand. Womens
rights issues are not black and white issues- a lot goes into why and how
these events happen and this book attempts to help the reader understand
why they occurred.
This source is useful. It provides context on a specific part of womens history
to help keep my topic relevant. This source is different because it begins in
1960 and ends in 1990, so its post suffragette movement. The information is
reliable and unbiased. The goal of this source is to provide context to a
specific part of womens history.
The source is helpful to me because it will provide context to another time
period in womens history to strengthen my research. I want to use this
source so that I can find out more information. If anything, this source just
made my knowledge of womens history more extensive so that I can make
more arguments. It will provide a historical background to the paper and help
with the eventual historical correlation of the suffragette movement to
feminist movements today.

This documentary is meant to help someone visualize the womens

movement. It speaks about the struggle that women had trying to earn their
right to vote. This documentary provides the audience with information about
the suffragette movement and explain why it was happening and the
hypocrisy of denying women the right to vote in the first place. This helps the
audience actually see what was happening instead of just reading about it.
This source is useful and was created by PBS, which is reliable. In some cases,
the historians speaking could be biased, but their job is to remain as
unbiased as possible while they tell the audience the facts. This source is
unique compared to the other sources because it is visual. The goal of this
source was to inform the audience of the suffragette movement and explain
the conflicts they faced and the
 This source is helpful to me because it provides more visuals on women
during the suffragette movement and so on. This source will provide decent
historical information and bring my subject into perspective. It will help
provide the paper with a historical background.
Papachristou, Judith. Women Together: a History in Documents of the
Womens Movement in the Unites States. Knopf, 1976.
Women Together is an in depth look at the womens movement starting in the
1830s until the 1970s. The difference in this source is that it is a general
overview of the current, modern womens movement. This book covers topics
like women and abolition, the temperance movement, the Nineteenth
Amendment, and the Equal Rights Amendment. This book is different from
the other sources because it has such an extensive timeline. This book
provides more detailed background information.
This book is reliable and uses a lot of good primary sources to back up their
claims. This book is unique because the timeline is much longer than the
other sources and therefore provides even more background to the topic. The
goal of this source is to provide the reader with a more extensive look at what
happened to the womens movement; why it gained momentum and why it
was look down upon, etc.
This source will provide my paper with more information for my historical
background. The point of that is so when I correlate the events in the 1920s
with the events that are modern (like the Womens March), I will be providing
the reader with extensive detail so that they fully understand my argument
and why I am thinking the way I am.
