    Meet The Suffragists A Presentation by the 2018-2020 GFWC-SC Ad Hoc Committee to Celebrate the Centennial of the Nineteenth Amendment Meet the Suffragists Susan B. Anthony Champion of temperance, abolition, the rights of labor, and equal pay for equal work, Susan Brownell Anthony became one of the most visible leaders of the women’s suffrage movement. Born on February 15, 1820 in Adams, Massachusetts, Susan was inspired by the Quaker belief that everyone was equal under God. That idea guided her throughout her life. She had seven brothers and sisters, many of whom became activists for justice and emancipation of slaves. In 1851, Anthony met Elizabeth Cady Stanton. The two women became good friends and worked together for over 50 years fighting for women’s rights. They traveled the country and Anthony gave speeches demanding that women be given the right to vote. In 1872, Anthony was arrested for voting. She was tried and fined $100 for her crime. This made many people angry and brought national attention to the suffrage movement. In 1876, she led a protest at the 1876 Centennial of our nation’s independence. She gave a speech—“Declaration of Rights”— written by Stanton and another suffragist, Matilda Joslyn Gage. Anthony died in 1906, 14 years before women were given the right to vote with the passage of the 19th Amendment in 1920. Submitted by Janet Watkins Carrie Chapman Carrie Chapman Catt was born January 9, 1859 in Ripon, Wisconsin. She attended Iowa State University. She was married to Leo Chapman (1885-1886); George Catt (1890-1905); partner Mary Garret Hay.

  • The Women's Suffrage Movement
    Name _________________________________________ Date __________________ The Women’s Suffrage Movement Part 1 The Women’s Suffrage Movement began with the Seneca Falls Convention of 1848. The idea for the Convention came from two women: Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott. Both were concerned about women’s issues of the time, specifically the fact that women did not have the right to vote. Stanton felt that this was unfair. She insisted that women needed the power to make laws, in order to secure other rights that were important to women. The Convention was designed around a document that Stanton wrote, called the “Declaration of Sentiments”. Using the Declaration of Independence as her guide, she listed eighteen usurpations, or misuses of power, on the part of men, against women. Stanton also wrote eleven resolutions, or opinions, put forth to be voted on by the attendees of the Convention. About three hundred people came to the Convention, including forty men. All of the resolutions were eventually passed, including the 9th one, which called for women’s suffrage, or the right for women to vote. Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott signed the Seneca Falls Declaration and started the Suffrage Movement that would last until 1920, when women were finally granted the right to vote by the 19th Amendment to the Constitution. 1.

  • Being Fed Through Nostrils Is Described by Alice Paul, Young American Suffragette,” December 1909
    Transcribed Excerpt from “Being Fed Through Nostrils Is Described by Alice Paul, Young American Suffragette,” December 1909 Inventor of Hunger Strike Tells How British Prison Physicians Keep Life in Women Who Won’t Eat or Wear Clothes. Miss Alice Paul, of Philadelphia, the suffragette who was arrested November 9th and sentenced to a month’s hard labor for her share in the suffragette demonstration at the Lord Mayor's banquet at the Guildhall, was released from Holloway jail this morning on the completion of her thirty days. She left the prison in a cab, accompanied by two wardresses, and went to the home of friends. A doctor was immediately called to attend her there, owing to her weakened condition. Miss Paul, who was the inventor of the suffragettes' "hunger strike” and practiced it during her latest term in jail, was cheerful, and said she did not regret her conduct, and was prepared lo repeat it again if necessary. She said she was unable to undergo the ordeal of an interview, but later she sent your correspondent a statement by a friend. On previous convictions, Miss Paul was able to gain her freedom by refusing to eat, but her tactics were futile this time. Miss Paul said she was the granddaughter of a New Jersey judge, and a master of arts of the University of Pennsylvania. She had done a great deal of settlement work during the last four years, and came to London in September, 1908, to study economies. After saying that she was first struck by the contrast between the academic interest in woman suffrage in America and the lively character of the movement here, Miss Paul told this story of her prison life.

  • Three Waves of Feminism
    01-Krolokke-4666.qxd 6/10/2005 2:21 PM Page 1 1 Three Waves of Feminism From Suffragettes to Grrls e now ask our readers to join us in an exploration of the history of W feminism or, rather, feminisms: How have they evolved in time and space? How have they framed feminist communication scholarship in terms of what we see as a significant interplay between theory and politics? And how have they raised questions of gender, power, and communication? We shall focus our journey on the modern feminist waves from the 19th to the 21st century and underscore continuities as well as disruptions. Our starting point is what most feminist scholars consider the “first wave.” First-wave feminism arose in the context of industrial society and liberal politics but is connected to both the liberal women’s rights movement and early socialist feminism in the late 19th and early 20th century in the United States and Europe. Concerned with access and equal opportunities for women, the first wave continued to influence feminism in both Western and Eastern societies throughout the 20th century. We then move on to the sec- ond wave of feminism, which emerged in the 1960s to 1970s in postwar Western welfare societies, when other “oppressed” groups such as Blacks and homosexuals were being defined and the New Left was on the rise. Second-wave feminism is closely linked to the radical voices of women’s empowerment and differential rights and, during the 1980s to 1990s, also to a crucial differentiation of second-wave feminism itself, initiated by women of color and third-world women.

  • Elizabeth Cady Stanton “Paved the Path for the Passage of the 19Th Amendment” November 12, 1815—October 26, 1902
    Elizabeth Cady Stanton “Paved the Path for the Passage of the 19th Amendment” November 12, 1815—October 26, 1902 Elizabeth Cady Stanton was born in Johnstown, New York on November 12, 1815 to one of the city’s most promi- nent and respected couples. As a child, her father showed clear preference for his son over Stanton, so from a young age she showed the determination to excel in typically “male” fields of the time. In 1832, Stanton graduated from Emma Willard’s Troy Female Seminary, then becoming an active member of the abolitionist, temperance, and women’s rights movements through her cousin, reformer Gerrit Smith. In 1840, Stanton married another reformer, Henry Stanton, and they immediately travelled to the World’s Anti-Slavery Convention in London, where she and several other women objected their exclusion from the conference. After their time in London, the Stantons returned to Seneca Falls, New York. In July 1848, Stanton, Lucretia Mott, and several other women convened the Seneca Falls Convention. Together, those in attendance wrote the “Declaration of Sentiments” and spearheaded the movement to propose women be granted suffrage. Stanton continued to be a prolific writer and lecturer on women’s rights and other reform topics, and after meeting Susan B. Anthony in the early 1850s, she became one of the national leaders promoting women’s rights, especially the right to vote. During the Civil War, Stanton focused on abolition work, but after the end of the war, she became even more ardent in her work supporting women’s suffrage, working with Susan B.
