The Suffrage Movement was a social and political campaign aimed at securing the right to vote for women. Beginning in the late 19th century, activists like Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton worked tirelessly to challenge laws that denied women this fundamental right. They organized rallies, wrote petitions, and lobbied lawmakers to bring attention to the inequality faced by women in society.
Over time, the movement gained momentum, leading to significant milestones such as the passage of the 19th Amendment in the United States in 1920. This amendment granted women the right to vote, marking a major victory for the suffragists and paving the way for future generations to advocate for equality and justice.
