  1. DNA: Answer this question… “Since the 1800s, women have not made significant progress in obtaining equality with men.” Do you agree or disagree? Why?

  2. Ch. 13: An Era of Reform Day #1

  3. Ch. 13 - An Era of Reform • To what extent did the reform movements ofthe mid-1800s improve life for Americans? • Response Group activity: Students examine the reform movements of the mid-1800s to evaluate to what extent they improved life for Americans. They then debate the extent to which grievances from the Declaration of Sentiments have been redressed today.

  4. “Let Us All Speak Our Minds” • Please follow along with the lyrics on your handout. • Afterward, we will answer the questions on the other handout.

  5. Men tell us 'tis fit that wives should submitTo their husbands, submissively meekly,Tho' whatever they say their wives should obey,Unquestioning, stupidly, weakly;Our husbands would make us their own dictum takeWithout ever a wherefore or why for it But I don't and I can't, and I wont and I shant!No, I will speak my mind if I die for it!

  6. For we know it's all fudge to say man's the best judgeOf what should be, and shouldn't and so on,That woman should bow, nor attempt to say howShe considers that matters should go on;I never yet gave up myself thus a slave,However my husband might try for it For I can't and I won't, and I shant and I don't,But I will speak my mind if I die for it!

  7. And all ladies I hope who've with husbands to cope,With the rights of the sex will not trifle,We all, if we choose our tongues but to use,Can all opposition soon stifle;Let man if he will then bid us be still,And silent, a price he'll pay high for it, --For we won't and we can't, and we don't and we shan't,Let us all speak our minds if we die for it!

  8. Song Questions: • What is the mood of the song’s melody? What emotions are expressed in the lyrics? Do the melody and lyrics seem to go together? Why or why not? • Why do you think women like those pictured above would write and sing a song like this? • Do you think this song’s message still has meaning today? Why or why not?
