Women's Suffrage in the early 1900s

In the late 1800s and early 1900s, women had little rights, including not having the right to vote and little economic or political equality. There were many women that fought for women's equality and in 1919 the 19th Amendment was passed and women finally had the right to vote. The American Woman Suffrage Association was formed in 1869 by many brilliant women, including Lucy Stone and Julia Howe. Also in 1869, Susan Anthony and Elizabeth Stanton founded the National Woman Suffrage Association.

"The Believers"

A women's organization that was founded to bring hope to women all around that it is possible to achieve equality in society.
