Question

negative value. In what ways was being a female
accused of a crime similar to being black, poor, or
mentally handicapped? What were some ways that
women were disadvantaged when seeking justice?
How did those disadvantages determine justice or
injustice for their cases?

Answer 1

Hey there!

More in the 1900s, women were seen as minors and they weren't really noticed. They were only known as the caretakers of the house. Just like black people in the old years, they were considered workers and weren't important. Some ways that women were disadvantaged when seeking justice is like how I said earlier because since they were only thought of like people who work in the house. These disadvantages gave women an even bigger reason to protest for their justice and their individual rights so their disadvantages determined their justice.
