Women and Reform 8.3

Main Idea After leading reform movements to help others, some American women began to work on behalf of themselves.

Women Demand Equality Women were key leaders in the abolition, temperance, and prison reform movements. Some women, like Abigail Adams, had been pushing for equal rights for years. (turn to page 120).

Women in the 1800s Could not vote Couldn’t run for office Restrictions on property ownership Few job opportunities Women urged to remain in the household Cult of domesticity: obey your husband

Education Women often denied educational opportunities In the 1800s, schools for women do appear, but there are few As women increasingly became employed in factories they began to demand rights.

Seneca Falls Convention 1848: Seneca Falls, NY Start of American women’s movement Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucetia Mott organize a gathering of women’s rights advocates. Created the Declaration of Sentiments: similar to Declaration of Independence, but proclaimed that “all men and women are created equal.”
