The American Suffragette Movement was a social and political campaign aimed at securing the right to vote for women in the United States. It began in the mid-19th century and gained momentum through the efforts of activists like Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton. The movement sought to challenge societal norms and advocate for women's rights, culminating in the passage of the 19th Amendment in 1920. The movement included various strategies, such as protests, rallies, and lobbying efforts. Organizations like the National American Woman Suffrage Association (NAWSA) played a crucial role in uniting women across the country. The struggle for suffrage was part of a broader fight for gender equality and social justice.
