A suffragist, social activist, abolitionist, and pioneer of women's rights movement
Real World Example
Elizabeth Cady Stanton was a key figure in the fight for women's rights and also spoke out against slavery. During the mid-1800s, she helped organize the Seneca Falls Convention, which was the first women's rights convention, and co-wrote the Declaration of Sentiments, demanding equal rights for women. Her efforts were important because they challenged societal norms and laid the groundwork for women's suffrage and equality. Today, Stanton's legacy inspires movements for gender equality, like the ongoing fight for equal pay. Her determination and courage continue to motivate people to stand up for their rights and work towards a more equal society.
