Many associate the early women’s suffrage movement with suffragist Elizabeth Cady Stanton. Stanton gained prominence with her commitment to abolition and the passing of the 13th Amendment, and quickly recognized the need for a women’s equality movement when barred from many abolition conventions and meetings on the basis of her sex. Partnering with Lucretia Mott, Susan B Anthony, and other progressive women, Stanton organized the first Women’s Rights Convention in 1848, the famed convention would later become known as the Seneca Falls
