In "A Lesson Before Dying," the women wanted Grant to help Jefferson find strength and dignity before his execution. They believed Grant, as a teacher, could make a positive impact on Jefferson and help him grow as a person during his final days. Ultimately, they hoped that Grant could teach Jefferson that he was not just a hog, as he had been cruelly labeled, but a man worthy of respect and self-worth.
Two of the main female characters in the book "A Lesson Before Dying" by Ernest J. Gaines are Tante Lou, Grant's aunt who is strong-willed and caring, and Vivian, Grant's lover who is understanding and supportive.
Texas ratified the 19th Amendment on June 28, 1919. It became the ninth state, and the first former Confederate state, to grant women's suffrage.
The grant of full suffrage to women in Wyoming occurred in 1869. The Nineteenth Amendment, which granted women the right to vote across the United States, was ratified in 1920. This means that Wyoming granted women full suffrage 51 years before the ratification of the Nineteenth Amendment.

In 1890, full suffrage to women had applied. Twenty-nine/29 years after, the nineteenth amendment happened.
Unlike magnets, each woman is different. Your first lesson. Women like to be listened to. Second lesson. Women like to be paid attention in small things. Third lesson. Show interest in the things SHE likes- last lesson.
Crops are blighted. The cattle are dying. Women are miscarrying or dying or both.
