Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The major accomplishment of the first wave of feminist activists was securing the right to vote for women, which happened with the passage of the 19th Amendment in 1920. While progress was made towards equal pay for women and reproductive freedom in later waves of feminism, these were not major accomplishments of the first wave. The decrease of sexism in the media is still an ongoing issue that has yet to be fully addressed.
