both movement also wanted the right to vote

In the 1960s, the Women's Rights Movement was called "feminism" or "female liberation". The reformers demanded the same salary as men, the same rights before the law and the freedom to plan their family or not to have children.

In the 1960s and 1970s, the birth control movement defended the legalization of abortion and asked governments for extensive education campaigns on contraceptives, insisting that women be given the right of choice. This movement influenced the judgment of the Supreme Court Roe v. Wade 1973, which legalized abortion during the first three months of gestation throughout the federal territory.

Mexican Americans and Native Americans, who were influenced by the feminist and African-American struggles, also began to claim their rights in the 1960s, highlighting situations of discrimination and lack of rights for their members.

Starting in the 1960's, the beginning of the women's rights movement resurged forward after being passive during the 1940's and 1950's. The last major hurdle that was overcome was the passage of the 19th amendment in 1920 giving women in the United States the right to vote. The Civil rights protests spurred the women of the 1960's to renew the push for equal rights for women as well as minorities in educational and employment fields. Equality in politics, both in the United States and internationally, were also on the agenda for women's rights.

In 1961, 50, 000 housewives successfully protested across the United States as the group Women Strike for Peace to help secure the signing of a Nuclear Test Treaty and other nuclear disarmament.

One of the main influential resources was the Commission on the Status of Women, founded by Eleanor Roosevelt in 1961. She was appointed by then President John F. Kennedy. Although while in the Senate, it had been noted Kennedy had voted against laws to give women more equality. But after a private meeting with the former first lady, she convinced him of the need for equality for women.

The discoveries made by the Commission were many. Legal barriers were found to exist as laws that barred women from certain occupations, performing jury duty and equal pay for equal work needed to be addressed.  

There were different types of women's rights groups being formed in the 1960's. The first, the Women's Liberation groups, were made up of mostly female students and other radicals already active in the civil rights movement. These groups were much smaller and more focused on personal experiences of discrimination. One example was what was known as "the chilly classroom climate". This was a classroom environment that discriminated again female student class participation. These groups put their main focus on working toward equality between men and women in employment, education and the spousal roles of marriage. Another larger better organized group, known as Women's Rights groups, lobbied for the strengthened equal rights laws to be enforced.
