As a member of the National American Woman Suffrage Association, I helped get the 19th Amendment ratified in 1920. I believe that everybody should have equal rights, especially when it comes to voting.]]> 2019-03-08 15:44:57 UTC https://padlet.com/allison_marty/zswq6n3qqdij/wish/339349361 allison_marty https://padlet.com/allison_marty/zswq6n3qqdij/wish/340142407 I just attended a convention at Seneca Falls, New York, where we planned to fight for social, civil, and religious rights of women. Even though not many people knew about the convention, 300 people showed up! Speeches were given by people like Elizabeth Cady Stanton and even Frederick Douglass. #wedeserverights #senecafalls]]> 2019-03-11 19:33:26 UTC https://padlet.com/allison_marty/zswq6n3qqdij/wish/340142407 allison_marty https://padlet.com/allison_marty/zswq6n3qqdij/wish/340144706 I just joined the National Women Suffrage Association.
