Are Women People? - A Book of Rhymes for Suffrage Times by Alice Duer Miller
3.0
Okay although i rated it a 3/5, it's rounded up cause i'd give it like a 2.5/5. So the only reason this book has such a low rating for something that is supposed to empower women was cause of the way it was written. Maybe the quotes just weren't my cup of tea but I still got the meaning of the book.
I feel like this book is more like annotating, delving deep into the simpler words of figures in the past, like reading comprehension style type of things. I'm pretty sure that's why i didn't like it. Alice uses like various quotes that men have said about women (yk the ones about women should stay at home, not vote, all that simultaneous rubbish) and like quotes women say to empower each other (how we must have a lot of patience to deal with bullshit).
