WOMEN’S RIGHTS Jacob R, Ryan O, Kyra C

The Desire  Women wanted to be equal to a man  They wrote the “Declaration of Sentiment” and changed a few words with the Declaration of Independence  “We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men and WOMEN are created equal”  They were still not given voting rights

Important People  Elizabeth Cady Stanton  Held first women’s rights convention called the Seneca Falls Convention in 1848  In 1840 she went with Lucretia Mott to the World Anti- Slavery Convention as a delegate  Lucretia Mott  Held Seneca Falls Convention with Elizabeth C. Stanton  Went to Anti-Slavery Convention in England

Important People Cont.  Sojourner Truth (Isabella Baumfree)  Freed of slavery in 1827  Got the name because she traveled throughout the country preaching and arguing for women’s rights and abolition of slavery  Tall muscular intimidating woman  At a women’s rights convention in 1851 she won approval with her speech that urged men to grant women their own rights

Accomplishments  Not until the Seneca Falls Convention was it that women were granted rights  In 1866 Mott joined Stanton and Lucy Stone to establish the American Equal Rights Association  Susan B. Anthony came later in 1854 and devoted her life to make sure all women had rights and is known for making complete legal equality of the two sexes
