Select the correct text in the passage. Which sentence states the author's thesis?
Rosie the Riveter
with her iconic blue shirt, flexed arm muscle, red bandanna, and "We Can Do It" slogan emblazoned above her head, Rosie the Riveter has been a symbol of women's rights for decades. Originally created during World War II, the fictional character of Rosie the Riveter was based on several real-life women who worked in industrial jobs around the country. The idea behind creating Rosle the Riveter was to encourage women to work in factory jobs while men fought in World War II. After World War II the image of Rosie has gone on to mean much more.
