Please conduct reliable online research and apply key concepts from lecture by providing a well-crafted analysis in response to the following assignment:
1) Does gender inequality remain a significant problem in the United States today? (Or, in the alternative) Do we suffer from an inherently biased justice system, catering to an old boy network of nepotism, promoting patriarchy while subjugating more than half the population?
2) Provide a concise statement of facts, beginning with the ratification of the 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution in 1920, including a timeline of critical events impacting gender equality over the past century, the passage of Title IX, the landmark gender equity law of 1972, the Violence Against Women Act of 1994, through now, as the Pew Research Center reports, women on average earn 84% of what men do.
3) Consider recent laws passed in Texas, Florida and Oklahoma, calculated to reduce the access to abortion services and a century of landmark U.S. Supreme Court cases, from Buck v. Bell, 274 U.S. 200 (1927) to Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization, 597 U. S. (2022), and/or policies from any other credible source.
4) Consider our nation’s Vice President currently holds the most powerful position of any woman in American history, that four of nine associate justices of the U.S. Supreme Court are women, and the National Student Clearinghouse Research Center reports nearly 60% of college students, from the 2021-22 academic year identify as women.
5) Provide concise introductory and concluding paragraphs, bolded headings to distinguish your thoughts, and reference no less than five reliable sources from which to use verifiable facts to support your assertions. Evaluations will be based upon the following criteria: Presentation/Layout (20 points), Argument/Use of Facts (20 points), Logic (20 points), Research (20 points) & Grammar (20 points).
6) Your Situation Analysis shall consist of a minimum of seven-to-ten pages in length, double spaced, typed in 12-point font. All sources of information to support your assertions must be cited in the American Psychological Association (APA) Format. PLEASE NOTE: Detection of plagiarism will result with NO CREDIT given for this assignment.
