Jeannette Rankin se narodila v Missoule v Montan\u011b v roce 1880. Z pokorn\u00fdch po\u010d\u00e1tk\u016f se vypracovala na v\u00fdznamnou ne\u00fanavnou obh\u00e1jkyni pr\u00e1v \u017een. Rankin\u016fv aktivismus za\u010dal v rozv\u00edjej\u00edc\u00edm se hnut\u00ed za volebn\u00ed pr\u00e1vo \u017een. Pracovala ne\u00fanavn\u011b jako aktivistka a lobbistka a hr\u00e1la kl\u00ed\u010dovou roli p\u0159i zaji\u0161\u0165ov\u00e1n\u00ed pr\u00e1va \u017een volit v Montan\u011b v roce 1914.<\/p>\n\n
Rankinino odhodl\u00e1n\u00ed k rovnosti \u017een ji p\u0159ivedlo do politick\u00e9 ar\u00e9ny. V roce 1916 rozbila sklen\u011bn\u00fd strop t\u00edm, \u017ee se stala prvn\u00ed \u017eenou zvolenou do Kongresu. Jej\u00ed hou\u017eevnatost a neochv\u011bjn\u00e1 v\u00edra ve v\u00fdznam hlasu \u017een ve vl\u00e1d\u011b polo\u017eila z\u00e1klady pro budouc\u00ed generace politi\u010dek.<\/p>\n\n
B\u011bhem sv\u00e9ho p\u016fsoben\u00ed v Kongresu Rankin bojovala za pr\u00e1va \u017een a za p\u0159ijet\u00ed 19. dodatku, kter\u00fd \u017een\u00e1m ud\u011blil volebn\u00ed pr\u00e1vo v cel\u00e9 zemi. Byla jedinou \u017eenou, kter\u00e1 pro dodatek hlasovala, a zanechala tak nesmazatelnou stopu v americk\u00e9 historii.<\/p>\n\n
Rankininy pacifistick\u00e9 n\u00e1zory vyvolaly b\u011bhem jej\u00ed kari\u00e9ry kontroverze. Byla jednou z m\u00e1la \u010dlen\u016f Kongresu, kte\u0159\u00ed hlasovali proti vstupu do prvn\u00ed sv\u011btov\u00e9 v\u00e1lky, co\u017e ji nakonec st\u00e1lo znovuzvolen\u00ed. P\u0159es tyto ne\u00fasp\u011bchy Rankin z\u016fstala neochv\u011bjn\u00e1 ve sv\u00e9m odhodl\u00e1n\u00ed k m\u00edru.<\/p>\n\n
V roce 1940 se Rankin vr\u00e1tila do Sn\u011bmovny reprezentant\u016f, kde op\u011bt zaujala z\u00e1sadov\u00fd postoj proti v\u00e1lce. Vhodila jedin\u00fd hlas proti vstupu do druh\u00e9 sv\u011btov\u00e9 v\u00e1lky, \u010d\u00edm\u017e demonstrovala sv\u00e9 neochv\u011bjn\u00e9 odhodl\u00e1n\u00ed k pacifismu.<\/p>\n\n
Rankinin odkaz pr\u016fkopnice politiky a obh\u00e1jkyn\u011b pr\u00e1v \u017een i nad\u00e1le inspiruje generace. Jej\u00ed neochv\u011bjn\u00e9 odhodl\u00e1n\u00ed a ochota zpochyb\u0148ovat status quo vydl\u00e1\u017edily \u017een\u00e1m cestu k p\u0159evzet\u00ed vedouc\u00edch rol\u00ed ve vl\u00e1d\u011b a spole\u010dnosti.<\/p>\n\n
Rankininy pr\u016flomov\u00e9 \u00fasp\u011bchy byly p\u0159irovn\u00e1v\u00e1ny k Hillary Clinton, dal\u0161\u00ed pr\u016fkopnici americk\u00e9 politiky. Clintonina historick\u00e1 prezidentsk\u00e1 kandidatura v roce 2016 byla postavena na z\u00e1kladech polo\u017een\u00fdch Rankin a dal\u0161\u00edmi \u017eenami, kter\u00e9 bojovaly za politickou rovnost.<\/p>\n\n
Rankinina cesta odr\u00e1\u017e\u00ed \u0161ir\u0161\u00ed v\u00fdvoj pr\u00e1v \u017een ve Spojen\u00fdch st\u00e1tech. Jej\u00ed aktivismus a politick\u00e9 \u00fasp\u011bchy hr\u00e1ly z\u00e1sadn\u00ed roli v zaji\u0161t\u011bn\u00ed hlasu \u017een ve vl\u00e1d\u011b a prosazov\u00e1n\u00ed v\u011bci rovnosti \u017een a mu\u017e\u016f.<\/p>\n\n
Rankinin odkaz slou\u017e\u00ed jako p\u0159ipom\u00ednka z\u00e1sadn\u00edho v\u00fdznamu hlas\u016f \u017een ve vl\u00e1d\u011b.
