National American Woman Suffrage Association Important People: First President: Elizabeth Cady Stanton Second President: Susan B. Anthony who served for 8 years

NAWSA... The first efforts to get a federal amendment created failed so NAWSA went state by state. By 1896 4 states allowed women to vote From 1896 to 1914 only 7 more states changed their laws and allowed women to vote The group begged President Wilson for his help

National Women’s Party Went beyond NAWSA and picketed the white house. Unpopular with NAWSA WHY??? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G811_Ej7LiQ

Alice Paul https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1uW-11bHC0Q

Suffragette EXAMPLE: ALICE PAUL A campaigner for women's suffrage willing to undertake militant action or to break the law. EXAMPLE: ALICE PAUL

Suffragist A campaigner for women's suffrage who believes in constitutional methods of campaigning. EXAMPLE: SUSAN B ANTHONY

Force Feeding Imprisoned suffragettes on hunger strike were sometimes force fed. Being force fed involved a rubber tube being inserted into the throat or nose and liquidised food being poured in

President Wilson’s Reaction... Wilson, appalled by the hunger strikes and worried about negative publicity for his administration, finally agreed to a suffrage amendment in January 1918. Two years later, toward the end of Wilson's second presidential term, Congress passed the 19th Amendment

Representation of the People Act 1918 Granted the vote to women over 30 who were also householders, the wives of householders, owners of property or university graduates. The Act also granted the franchise to all men over the age of 21.
