These brave women fought for equality in voting, education, and work during the 1800s. Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton organized the first women’s rights convention at Seneca Falls (1848) and led the suffrage movement. Sojourner Truth delivered her famous “Ain’t I a Woman?” speech connecting women’s and Black rights. Harriet Tubman led slaves to freedom via the Underground Railroad while advocating women’s equality. Lucretia Mott fought slavery, too. Lucy Stone refused to use her husband’s name and led early suffrage campaigns.
