It was 1848 when the Women’s Suffrage started. It affected every women that was born in the U.S.A at that time because they didn’t get to vote for anyone they wanted for president or things like that. Since the movement succeeded we can now vote.
Women’s Suffrage didn’t begin until Susan B Anthony called a meeting in Seneca New York. In that meeting they talked about getting their rights to vote. Susan B. Anthony had gone to that meeting and all the women discussed that they were gonna peacefully protest until they got their rights to vote. Susan B. Anthony organized conventions for white people and she organized it to make it so that she could get people’s votes for rights of the women to be able to vote. At this time we still had slaves so then it was just conventions for white people.
Elizabeth Cady Stanton was a part of this also. She had helped make the Women’s Suffrage Movement take place. Elizabeth Cady Stanton made and wrote speeches/pamphlets and wrote “Declaration of women’s rights” with Susan B Anthony. Elizabeth wrote many pamphlets and read speeches to big crowds.
Ida B. Wells was a women so back then before the Women’s Suffrage began all women weren’t treated the same as men. Ida B. Wells was banned from an anti-slavery, convention because she was a women. Ida B. Wells wasn’t allowed in any conventions because she was a women.
Mary Wollstonecraft wrote a book called. “A vindication of the Rights of a Women.” which supported the women in getting their movement to pass. Mary Wollstonecraft was writing books and it helped her make their rights of a women more powerful and greater. Mary Wollstonecraft worked very hard with these other 3 ladies to make the Women’s Suffrage Movement act succeeded.
The 9th amendment was what made the Women’s Suffrage come true and make the Women’s Suffrage come true and become a true act. The 9th amendment helped every women in the U.S to be able to vote. If the 9th amendment didn’t exist the women of the U.S wouldn’t be voting today.
Now you know how the women of the world can vote. You ladies can thank Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Ida B. Wells, Mary Wollstonecraft. All these ladies working together made the goals of the Women’s Suffrage Movement come true. Imagine if we didn’t have these ladies the Women’s Suffrage Movement probably wouldn’t have happened until years later.
