Answer 1

The following statements about the women’s rights movement are true:

1. The Woman Suffrage Procession helped to bring attention to the movement and included over 8,000 marchers.

2. Susan B. Anthony’s arrest and trial brought national attention to the issue of women’s suffrage and helped increase support.

3. The National American Woman Suffrage Association was founded and became the largest suffrage organization in the United States.

The statement regarding Alice Paul is misleading. While she was a prominent leader in the women's suffrage movement and organized many protests, her protests were not violent, and the Nineteenth Amendment was ratified as a result of a long struggle rather than swift action due to violent protests.
