 Carrie
Chapman Catt helped get the
19th Amendment passed in 1920, and then
established the League of Women Voters to
ensure that women possessed an
understanding of public affairs so they
could vote intelligently. |

 Lucy Stone
was inspired to fight for women's rights
while still young, when her father told
her that women had no need for a formal
education. She gave her first speech on
women's rights in 1847, and spent much of
the rest of her life speaking and writing
on behalf of both woman suffrage and
abolition. |
