Susan B. Anthony Women’s Suffrage Act

Her Early Life Born on February 15, 1820 in West Grove, Massachusetts. Her parents were Daniel Anthony and Lucy Read. She was 1 of 7 children. She learned to read and write at the age of three.

Religion She grew up in a Quaker Church. The Quaker religion had different beliefs about women than other religions. They believed women should have the same rights as men. This is where Anthony learned to speak about what she believed in.

Becoming Independent Her first job was as a teacher. She then got another job as a principal of an all girls’ school. She wanted to do more with her life. She wanted to work for justice for all.

Fighting for Justice Justice means equal treatment under the law. She worked against the social injustice of slavery. She quit her job and spent all her time working against slavery.

Meeting Elizabeth Cady Stanton Stanton worked for Women’s Rights. Anthony and Stanton became instant friends. They worked together for the next 52 years to win equal rights for women.

Stanton and Anthony They made a perfect team. Stanton wrote the speeches and Anthony delivered them. They wanted to win justice for all including African Americans and women. They started an anti-slavery group for women called the Women’s National Loyal League.

Suffrage- the right to vote For women to earn the right to vote they started the National Woman Suffrage Association. Even though women were not allowed to vote, Anthony voted anyway and was arrested for voting illegally.

Suffrage Anthony’s trial took place in June 1873 The judge would not let her speak and persuaded the jury to vote against her. The judge was afraid if the jury saw she had not broken a law, then all women in New York would be allowed to vote.

Suffrage Granted Some states allowed women to vote in 1906. In 1920, after Anthony and Stanton were gone, all women were allowed to vote.

Honoring Anthony Today, she is honored with the Susan B. Anthony dollar.

Honoring Anthony She also has a plaque at the National Women’s Hall of Fame, in Seneca Falls, New York.
