American Women Suffrage Movement right to vote = suffrage = enfranchisement

Essential Question: How did women gain the right to vote?

Seneca Falls, New York 1848 Conference led by Lucretia Mott and Elizabeth Cady Stanton Wrote the Declaration of Sentiments

Before 1910 National American Woman Suffrage Association (NAWSA) Big leaders: Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton Two big strategies: Win suffrage state by state Pass a Constitutional Amendment (need 2/3rds vote in Congress & ratified by 3/4ths of state legislatures)

Susan B. Anthony Late 1800s, Anthony tried several times to introduce Amendment bill for women’s suffrage, but always killed in Senate. Susan B. Anthony

The Next Generation Elizabeth Cady Stanton died in 1902 Susan B. Anthony died in 1906 By early 1900s many young, middle-class & working class women joined suffrage movement

NAWSA Led by Carrie Chapman Catt Believed in “ladylike” strategies: State-by-state granting of vote Supporting President Wilson Never breaking the law!

Map of Women’s Suffrage Before 1920

National Woman’s Party Led by Alice Paul Believed in more aggressive strategies: Focused on passing Constitutional Amendment Adopted strategies from British militant suffragettes

Silent Sentinels Pickett White House,1917

Should suffragettes have continued protesting during World War I?

19th Amendment Ratified 1920 "The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex.
