Question

Name the proposed amendment that would have gender equality for the U.S.

a) First Amendment
b) Second Amendment
c) Nineteenth Amendment
d) Twenty-First Amendment

Answer 1

Alice Paul promoted the Equal Rights Amendment to end gender discrimination, not the First, Second, Nineteenth, or Twenty-First Amendments.

Step-by-step explanation:

Alice Paul promoted the Equal Rights Amendment to end gender discrimination. This proposed amendment was designed to provide gender equality in the United States. However, the options listed in the question (First Amendment, Second Amendment, Nineteenth Amendment, Twenty-First Amendment) do not correspond to the Equal Rights Amendment. Among these options, Nineteenth Amendment is the closest in context as it has a significant historical relation to women's rights, specifically granting women the right to vote. The First Amendment protects the freedoms of speech, press, and religion, while the Second Amendment deals with the right to bear arms. The Twenty-First Amendment involved the repeal of Prohibition.
