Women’s Suffrage By:Abigail Burnham
The Women’s Suffrage has changed the rights for women in America. This movement started in 1848 with a meeting in New York. Two main women led us (ladies) to victory! Because of the Women’s Suffrage movement now women are allowed to vote.
Susan .B Anthony
The women who lead The Women’s Suffrage is on the silver coin. Susan B. Anthony was the leader of the Women’s Suffrage. When she was little Susan Anthony loved to learn, she was also smart. When Susan B. Anthony wanted to do more of the work she had been doing her teacher said no because she had different rights than men. When she was wasn’t allowed to vote, Susan Anthony did any way. She had to go to court because of the vote. She had to either pay 100 dollars or go to jail for 10 days. She didn’t pay the money nor go to jail.
The Beginning of NWSA
Susan B. Anthony made a friend named Elizabeth Cady Stanton. They might of had nothing incomin, but they made something amazing they made the National Woman Suffrage Association (NWSA). The first meeting that they had was in 1848 at Seneca Falls, New York. Susan did the talking while Elizabeth made the speeches and made the meetings happen. They both made a diffrence in the USA’s women.
Elizabeth Cady Stanton
Elizabeth Cady Stanton was an amazing intelligent women who had started the Women’s Suffrage. Then she had made friend, Susan .B Anthony. Susan loved the idea of NWSA. They both worked hard on it. Elizabeth made a Women’s Bible to show that women didn’t need men to tell them what to do. After a long time of hard work Elizabeth said to Susan that she thought that NWSA was go down hill and then quit.
The 19 Amendment
The women’s society was furious when they got shut down by the government. The women finally convinced the government to let the women vote. The 19 Amendment was was for women in the U.S.A and it claims that the women have the same rights as men. Because of the 19 Amendment the Women’s Suffrage ended.
