The Abolitionist Movement In the early 1800s, the abolitionist movement grew in the U.S. Abolitionism is the movement to end slavery Women were also active in this movement, and women like Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott got their start as reformers in the abolitionist movement

Women’s Suffrage Suffrage = the right to vote Women were involved in many other reform movements, and were treated unfairly there, as well This encouraged many female reformers to push for women’s rights
