Question.573 - Post-war America was a place full of contradictions.

Be sure to use evidence from at least one of the Primary Sources in Through Women’s Eyes. What is the idea of the Feminine Mystique and how did it shape women’s lives in the 1950s? Is it an accurate portrayal? How did media in the 1950s and early 1960s promote the image of the housewife and the domestic ideal? How did beliefs and prejudices surrounding sexuality and gender identity shape women’s experiences and opportunities? How did some women challenge these limitations? What roles did women take in the Civil Rights Movement in the 1950s and 1960s? How does the concept of “bridge leadership” help us to understand their contributions? What obstacles did women in the Civil Rights Movement face?
