Chapter 8 The Northeast Section 5 The Women’s Movement CSS - 8.6, 8.6.6, 8.6.5

Looking Back, Looking Ahead In Section 4, you learned about the reform movement that swept America in the 1800s. In Section 5, you will learn about how that movement influenced women to lobby for increased rights.

Focusing on the Main Idea Many women believed they should have the same opportunities as men, and they organized to gain these rights. Women made progress in gaining equality in education, marriage laws, and the professional sector.

People to Know Lucretia Mott Elizabeth Cady Stanton Susan B. Anthony Mary Lyon Elizabeth Blackwell

Vocabulary to Know Suffrage: the right to vote. Coeducation: teaching boys & girls together Ministry: the office, duties of a minister Goal: an aim or purpose

Did You Know? With the issue of a new dollar coin in 1979, Susan B. Anthony became the first woman to be depicted on United States currency. Unfortunately, the coin was not very popular due to its size, which is too similar to that of a quarter.

What Was the Seneca Falls Convention? Lucretia Mott was a Quaker who lectured for peace, temperance, workers’ rights, and abolition. She also helped fugitive slaves. Elizabeth Cady Stanton helped organize the first women’s rights convention in Seneca Falls, New York. The Seneca Falls Convention issued the Declaration of Sentiments and Resolutions, which declared that all men and women were equal. It called for an end to discrimination against women and demanded women’s suffrage, or the right to vote.

What Was the Women’s Rights Movement? The women’s rights movement grew during the 1800s. Susan B. Anthony called for equal pay, college training for girls, and coeducation—the teaching of boys and girls together. Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton led the women’s rights movement.

Discussion Question What demands did the attendees at the Seneca Falls Convention make? (The women attending the convention called for the end to laws that discriminated against women. They called for women to be allowed to enter trades, professions, and businesses that were reserved for men, and they demanded the right to vote.)

What Progress Was Made By American Women? The Industrial Revolution began to change the economic roles of men and women. Men often left home to go to work, and women were primarily responsible for the home and family.

What Strides Were Made for Women in Education? Education reform leaders began to call for more educational opportunities for women. Emma Willard established the Troy Female Seminary in New York, which taught girls subjects considered suitable only for boys. Mary Lyon established Mount Holyoke Female Seminary in Massachusetts

What Changes were in the Marriage and Family Laws? During the 1800s women made some gains in the area of marriage and property laws. Some states allowed women to own property, to share guardianship of their children jointly with their husbands, and to divorce their husbands if they abused alcohol.

What Other Fields Did Women Enter in the 1800s? Women began entering fields such as medicine and the ministry in the 1800s. Elizabeth Blackwell attended medical school and became a successful doctor.

Discussion Question What subjects were considered suitable only for boys in the 1800s? (Boys were taught mathematics, science, history, and geography. Girls were not typically allowed to study these subjects.)
