Depends on how early your talking about. Before the 1920's women, African Americans, Irish, Italians, immigrants, Native Americans, and many other racial groups did not have equal rights and freedoms. Some of the mentioned groups may have had equal rights and freedoms lawfully, but in society were frowned upon and denied the rights and freedoms they were supposed to have. Women gained the right to vote in the 1920's making them more equal to the men population of American citizens.
