Answer:

The women’s rights movement, also called the women’s liberation movement, was a diverse social movement that sought equal rights and opportunities and greater personal freedom for women during the 1960s and 1970s. It coincided with and is recognized as part of the “second wave” of feminism. Some specific goals of the feminist movement during this time included reproductive freedom and safe access to legal abortion, education for women, and de-sexing the English language. The movement had many successes, including the passage of the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) by Congress in 19723.
