The prison reform began as a favor to friend. Our lovely Dorothea Dix had volunteered to teach a Sunday school class at a prison and was shocked to see the condition they were living in: cages, chains, children, starvation, and dark damp cells. Some had such a big punishment for a small debt and the mentally ill would get punished for acting out, sometimes that they couldn't control.
Dorothea Dix then wrote a letter to the state legislature and because they were so shocked, they announced her as the reform leader. They helped Dix make new mental hospitals and closed the debt prisons due to the cruel and unusual punishment. They also mad a new system for children so they could learn and grow in there own area. These transformations helped the weary think clearer and the inmates to get better conditions.

The fight for women's rights didn't start when Rosa Parks refused to move, it actually started way before then in 1840 at the World Antislavery Convention in London. Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott, as shown to the right, both attended it and they were restricted from talking, along with the few rights they already had in place, like no voting, or holding office, plus anything they had or earned belonged to the husband after marriage. This frustrated the two women and they certainly did something about it.
In New York they held the national women's rights convention called the Seneca Falls convention that discussed there equality in work, school, church, and the voting houses. Noble reformists were also there including Susan B. Anthony and Lucy Stone. They presented a Declaration of Sentiments to multiple legislatures and started the reformation process with better divorce laws and wages.
