OK
I am shocked too.

Although I think women's suffrage is very important it does NOT merit more pages than the revolutionary war (imo). I think women's suffrage can be rolled over into other topics- for example explaining step by step what women's rights were along the time line you are studying, and the same can be done with black history, or Latino studies, etc. I remember learning a great deal of revolutionary and colonial history in middle school which included the fact that women could not vote. Black history is similarly enmeshed, and teachable in situ- as opposed to pulling it out from the other aspects of history. I do not see why it needs to be separated out. I would much rather the threads were taught as a whole fabric, which is what history is.
