Although many women had been advocating for voting rights for years, the women’s suffrage movement began to pick up steam in the mid-nineteenth century. A major milestone for the movement occurred in 1848, when Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott organized the first convention for women’s rights in Seneca Falls, New York. The two women also supported the abolition of slavery. They came up with the idea for the women’s rights convention after women were barred from participating in the 1840 World Anti-Slavery Convention in London.

Many women’s rights advocates also supported the abolitionist movement and the right of African Americans to vote. After the Civil War and the emancipation of slaves in the United States, the Fifteenth Amendment, which would give African American men the right to vote, was proposed. This caused a great divide between women suffragists. Some women, including Stanton and Anthony, would not support the amendment because they felt that it should extend voting rights to all American citizens. Other women, including Lucy Stone and Julia Ward Howe, supported the amendment. They believed that once African American men had the vote, women would be next.

"The Fight for the Right to Vote" explores the history and challenges faced by women and African Americans in their quest for voting rights. The mid-nineteenth century marked the beginning of the women's suffrage movement, gaining momentum with the 1848 Seneca Falls convention organized by Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott. While many women's rights advocates also supported the abolitionist movement and the right of African Americans to vote, the proposal of the Fifteenth Amendment created a divide among suffragists. Some, like Stanton and Anthony, opposed the amendment as they believed voting rights should extend to all citizens, while others, such as Lucy Stone and Julia Ward Howe, supported it, hoping that once African American men gained the vote, women's rights would follow suit. This article highlights the complex and interconnected struggles for both women and African Americans to secure the right to vote.
