votes for women

Today we watched a film which was about the women rights to vote. In the past, women in the United States did not have suffrage; therefore, a group of women established an organization to fight with their right. However, they confronted lots of difficulties. For example, men could not accept what those women did; as a result, men blackguarded them. Moreover, some of women were arrested. Those women, however, did not give up until the government gave the rights for women to vote. One of the parts in the movie made me feel sympathetic to the heart was the leader of the organization who was arrested refused to eat because she thought she did not against the law, and her partners followed what she did. As a result, the jailer isolated that leader in a cocooned room. Later, when the leader was back, one of them was starting singing a song. Little by little, everybody stopped eating, and sang the song together; the restaurant was rift with that song suddenly.
