Women of the 19th century (and let's be clear we're talking about middle/upper-class white women who had some spare time on their hands) and early 20th century were advocating for themselves and others. They wanted rights (voting and property for themselves and their daughters), but they also wanted improved wages, working conditions, living conditions, better prisons and asylums, and a world without discrimination for all women. What is a cause you currently advocate for, or have in the past, or want to in the future (if you weren't so busy with school)? What is some cause that would get you out of your house and into the street and why? There's is so much good work being done in the world and we should be aware of it (and celebrate it).
