What Is Susan B Anthony's Suffrage
When Susan B. Anthony was of age thirty-two, she had attended her first women’s right convention in Syracuse in 1852, Anthony declared, “that the right which women needed above every other, the one indeed which would secure her to all the others, was the right of suffrage.” (Professor Douglas O.

Anthony had tried to do it herself, and she had for the most part. This was important in history because her speech and lectures had encouraged people that giving women the right to suffrage was a good thing. Anthony had also told the men that what they were doing was wrong and that women are the same as men, and they deserve …show more content…
In fact it was the whole female population, but Anthony had wanted to put a stop to it and had basically said in her speech that everyone is equal and if men are to look down upon women they aren’t looking at themselves as if they are worthy of anything either because everyone is all the same we’re all human and should be looked at as if everyone is in fact human. This example relates to the theme leadership and legacy because, Susan B. Anthony had taken the role of saying every single speech she was leading the new revolution as some may call it and, she had left behind her legacy of getting women the vote with every single one of her words that she had spoken.This was important in history because Anthony’s amazing speeches convinced almost everyone to believe that it was, in fact, a good idea to let women have the right to
