In speaking about womens' liberation, one major event in the US was the most significant one that led to womens' rights. That was the ratification of the 19th amendment. This amendment gave women the right to vote. From that point on, women were able to take all the steps they needed to become equal citizens with men.

One event that led to the passing of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 was The Selma March. The Selma March took place in Alabama and was used to call attention to the voting rights issue. The walk was from Selma to the state capital. After marchers set out and were attacked, President Johnson put the Alabama National Guard under federal control. When the march reached Montgomery its ranks were up to about 25,000 people. Hope this helped!

The civil rights activist who notably led the March on Selma, Alabama, in 1965 was Martin Luther King Jr. This pivotal event, part of the Selma to Montgomery marches, aimed to combat racial discrimination and secure voting rights for African Americans. King, along with other activists, faced significant opposition but ultimately helped to galvanize national support for civil rights legislation, leading to the Voting Rights Act of 1965.
