Hello, I am Lucy. I am here to tell you what it is like to be a women walking the streets in the United States in the early 20^th century. I am currently witnessing a protest in New York City that supports women’s ability to vote. There are many opposing views that are talking down to women saying that our vote is not meaningful and will just duplicate our husbands.  Women's suffrage gets confused in the media saying we are trying to take over the world when we are really just trying to have a say in our democracy. As a citizen it is our right to vote and be treated equally. Throughout New York you can see many propaganda posters hung up to encourage Woman’s suffrage. On the contrary, there are also newspaper articles convincing men otherwise. I am confused on why this is a struggling topic since the first convention to discuss civil and political rights of women was first discussed in July of 1848. Now there is a lot more support since that convention and now there is a suffragist headquarters located in Ohio. This headquarters is a place where people can get more information and learn about why women want to vote. This is becoming a more well-known topic that the presidents are even trying to support. The current president Woodrow Wilson supports Woman Suffrage, and is doing his best to bring attention to this matter.  I am writing this today because I am trying to encourage other minority groups to stick up for what they believe is right so they can be treated fairly. This is how democracy grows. We work and take care of our household, we deserve to have a say in the government as well. So please follow me in this journey and see the transformations of woman’s rights as I see them today.
