Suffragists
Suffragists were individuals who advocated for the right to vote, particularly for women. They believed that everyone, regardless of gender, should have a say in the political process. This movement gained momentum in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, with many suffragists organizing rallies, marches, and campaigns to raise awareness and support for women's voting rights.
Key figures in the suffragist movement included Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton, who played significant roles in promoting the cause. Their efforts contributed to the eventual passage of the 19th Amendment in the United States, granting women the right to vote in 1920.
