Context
The organized women's rights movement began at the Seneca Falls Convention in 1848, where Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott drafted the Declaration of Sentiments demanding equal rights. Though these leaders died before women won the vote in 1920, their activism laid the groundwork for the 19th Amendment. Some, like Harriet Tubman and Sojourner Truth, were formerly enslaved and fought for both racial and gender justice.
