why

 Women's suffrage (long called woman suffrage) represents the first stage in the demand for political equality. It generally comes prior to women running and being elected to national political office and holding major appointive posts.

Individual women demanded suffrage for themselves as early as the 1600s. An organized movement on behalf of woman suffrage, led by women but open to men, first emerged in the United States in 1848

motives

when suffrage was in everybody's mouth and on the front page of every newspaper, few paused to ask how it all started, where it all came from. It was just there, like breakfast

the main reason for the suffrage movement was to demand rights for women to vote.

application

• this applies to me and my life because it showed me how women fought for their rights

• it shows me how i should appreciate the rights i have now and not take it for granted.

evaluation

• i wouldn't change anything
• fighting for our rights seemed to be the right thing to do
• everything they do such as; conventions, making the movement, etc.
