1 Susan Brownell Anthony By Erika Lyon

2 In 1820 Susan Brownell Anthony was born in Adams, Massachusetts. Her father was a hardworking Quaker who believed that women deserved an education.

3 Susan’s father owned a mill where young women like herself wove cotton into cloth.

4 When Susan was 11 years old she asked her father to hire a woman as the boss since they knew more than the man who was already their boss. Her father said no, which made her question why shouldn’t a woman be the boss? ???

5 When Susan’s father lost the mill, she became a teacher at a boarding school. She taught for ten years.

6 Susan then moved to Rochester, NY to live with her family. There she made abolitionist friends, and her family became part of the Underground Railroad.

7 In 1851, Susan met Elizabeth Cady Stanton, who organized the first women’s rights convention. She believed that women should have the right to own their own property and should be allowed to vote!

8 Susan then traveled all around New York giving speeches about women’s rights to gain supporters.

9 Susan also worked with abolitionists to end slavery during the Civil War, in hopes that every one would be given the right to vote, white or black, man or woman.

10 In 1865 Congress passed the 14 th Amendment that gave voting rights to former slaves, but only men.

11 Susan and Mrs. Stanton continued to speak out for women’s rights and traveled from state to state. They formed the National Woman Suffrage Association.

12 In 1872 on Election Day, Susan and over a hundred supporters went to the polls to vote. Susan was then arrested and put on trial.

13 Susan and supporters took their fight to Congress. In 1887 Congress looked at changing the U.S. Constitution to give women the right to vote, but Congress said denied it.

14 In 1906 Susan B. Anthony attended her last women’s rights meeting and died shortly after.

15 In 1920 women were finally granted the right to vote.
