Suffrage Organizations
Suffrage organizations were groups formed to advocate for the right to vote, particularly for women. These organizations played a crucial role in the women's suffrage movement, which sought to secure voting rights for women in various countries. They organized rallies, petitions, and educational campaigns to raise awareness about the importance of voting rights.
One of the most notable suffrage organizations in the United States was the National American Woman Suffrage Association (NAWSA), founded in 1890. Another significant group was the Women's Social and Political Union (WSPU) in the United Kingdom, known for its more militant tactics. Together, these organizations helped pave the way for the eventual passage of suffrage laws.
