ELIZABETH CADY STANTON 1848,women’s rights convention in Seneca Falls, NY all men and women are created equal The only issue that did not pass was the call for the right of women to vote

She wrote The Woman's Bible in which she criticized the treatment of women in the Old Testament.

Stanton and Daughter Harriot An excellent writer and speaker, she and Susan B. Anthony formed the National Woman Suffrage Association in 1869 and worked together to secure women's right to vote. Throughout her life, Elizabeth Cady Stanton was a spokesperson for the rights of women. Her daughter, Harriot Stanton Blatch, carried on her mother's work. Elizabeth Cady Stanton and her daughter, Harriot, 1856

SARAH AND ANGELINA GRIMKE  ran a school for women to educate them beyond elementary level  Sarah’s treatise: Letters on the Equality of the Sexes and the Condition of Women (1838) –Women as equals are unspeakably more valuable than women as inferiors, both as moral and intellectual beings  1836, An Appeal to Christian Women of the South, Angelina –to overthrow this oppressive system of slavery

Elizabeth opened up a "dispensary" in 1853, a forerunner to the modern private practice. However, Elizabeth still faced discrimination and prejudices. –Male doctors ignored her and many hospitals would not let her in the wards and she had very few patients opened the New York Infirmary for Women and Children. The Infirmary was run entirely by women physicians

Amelia Bloomer Amelia Bloomer in the Bloomer Costume, 1850s. Her feminist magazine The Lily was the first to publicize the costume, which ever after bore her name.
