For those who need a dose of pride and a slice of history, Faderman's portraits should strike a popular note. From Booklist , June 1, 1999
Faderman continues her work in lesbian studies with an analysis of how nineteenth-and twentieth-century women whose lives can be described as "lesbian" pioneered civil rights movements because "lesbian arrangements freed" them to do so more than "heterosexual arrangements" would have. The book breaks no new ground, including assessments of Susan B. Anthony (who "chided" black activist Ida Wells Barnett for dividing her energies by getting married and having children), Carrie Chapman Catt (who used her "great personal attractiveness to women to the advantage of the suffrage movement"), and Eleanor Roosevelt (who found sanctuary and sustenance in a cadre of lesbian political activists in Greenwich Village). Because lesbian identity per se is a modern concept and Faderman's sources are thin, believe may be the operative word. Faderman is more successful in interweaving women's leadership and participation in various social activisms with a mainstream story that has focused primarily on men and in showing the gradual shift from closeted lesbian activism to feminism's second wave

This 11 page report discusses the remarkable life of Mary Harris Jones or “Mother” Jones (1837- 1930) Because of her radical politics and her determination, she was one of the most famous women in America in the early years of the 20th century. She was famous in many respects because she was nobody and yet she was the embodiment of tens of thousands of the working poor. At the same time, she made certain that she was not simply looked over as another poor immigrant woman without money, family, or connections. Mary Harris Jones carried a message to the people of Africa regarding the nation’s women, its poor, and its workers. She told the truth that nobody wanted to hear . . .especially when it came from an immigrant woman. And yet, Mary Jones personifies the spirit which became an essential component of the women’s movement in America. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

Background:

Elizabeth had many friends who were abolitionists, and she enjoyed spending time with them. While at the house of Gerritt Smith in 1839, she met Henry Stanton, a strong abolitionist, who hoped to go into politics. They fell in love and were soon engaged, but her fathers opposition broke up the engagement for a time. They continued to write, and in the spring of 1840, Henry told her that he had been elected as a delegate to the World Anti-Slavery Convention in London. If they got married now, she could go to London and have Henry at the same time. If not, it would be another eight months until he got back. They decided to elope. During the ceremony she told the minister that they would be equal partners and she would not promise to "obey" him. Immediately after Elizabeth's marriage to Henry, they sailed to London. While there, Elizabeth grew fond of Lucretia Mott, a delegate from Philadelphia. Lucretia was a Quaker and was used to other Quakers treating her as an equal to men. She was twenty-two- years older that Elizabeth and lectured on abolition. Most often her lectures were to women, but sometimes they were to combined audiences.
When Elizabeth and the others arrived in England they were told that the women would not be able to sit with the men as regular delegates. Although Elizabeth was not a delegate, she was very angry. She decided to speak her mind at the boarding house, along with Lucretia Mott and the other American women. Most of the American delegates, both men and women, protested women not being able to sit with the regular delegates, but it didn't do any good. One man was so furious, he went and sat behind the curtain with the women.

    SUFFRAGE (Women's right to vote) Over the years, Mark Twain changes his mind about female sufferage: I think I could write a pretty strong argument in favor of female suffrage, but I do not want to do it. I never want to see the women voting, and gabbling about politics, and electioneering. There is something revolting in the thought. It would shock me inexpressibly for an angel to come down from above and ask me to take a drink with him (though I should doubtless consent); but it would shock me still more to see one of our blessed earthly angels peddling election tickets among a mob of shabby scoundrels she never saw before.

    THE WOMENS SUFFRAGE LEAGUE
    In 1885 a motion for the enfranchisement of women was passed in the Parliament. This motion put the whole question of women’s suffrage, their right to vote, on the political agenda. The first Bill calling for Women’s Suffrage was moved in the House by Dr. Edward Stirling in 1886. It proposed to give the franchise to women over the age of 21 years who were either spinsters or widows and met a property qualification. Though the Bill was passed it did not receive the required majority. On 13 July 1888 Mary Lee and her fellow workers from the Social Purity League, and others, met and initiated the South Australian Women’s Suffrage League. In her speech to the inaugural public meeting held a week later, Mary Lee said the franchise "would assist them to re-dress women’s wrongs - moral, social, industrial and educational." Dr. Edward Stirling, first President of the Women’s Suffrage League The meeting was reported in the Register.

    Voting Rights
    General Articles EA Contents WOMEN'S SUFFRAGE
    Woman Suffrage, suf'rij, the right of women to vote in political ELECTIONS . 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. Woman suffragists often met hostility and sometimes violence. In 1893 New Zealand became the first country to grant women the right to vote in national elections. Most adult women throughout the world today can vote. Women's organizations in many countries made the fight for suffrage their most fundamental demand because they saw it as the defining feature of full citizenship. The philosophy underlying women's suffrage was the belief in "natural rights." Woman suffrage claimed for women the right to govern themselves and choose their own representatives. It asserted that women should enjoy individual rights of self-government, rather than relying on indirect civic participation as the mothers, sisters, or daughters of male voters. Women's enfranchisement took many decades to achieve because women had to persuade a male electorate to grant them the vote. Many menand some womenbelieved that women were not suited by circumstance or temperament for the vote. Western political philosophers insisted that a voter had to be independent, unswayed by appeals from employers, landlords, or an educated elite. Women by nature were believed to be dependent on men and subordinate to them. Many thought women could not be trusted to exercise the independence of thought necessary for choosing political leaders responsibly. It was also believed that women's place was in the home, caring for husband and children. Entry of women into political life, it was feared, challenged the assignment of women to the home and might lead to disruption of the family.

    Evidence from a variety of printed sources published during this periodadvice manuals, poetry and literature, sermons, medical textsreveals that Americans, in general, held highly stereotypical notions about women's and men's roles in society.

    The History of the Suffrage Movement
    by Marjorie Spruill Wheeler
    "Hundreds of women gave the accumulated possibilities of an entire lifetime, thousands gave years of their lives, hundreds of thousands gave constant interest, and such aid as they could. It was a continuous, seemingly endless, chain of activity. Young suffragists who helped forge the last links of that chain were not born when it began. Old suffragists who forged the first links were dead when it ended." - Carrie Chapman Catt and Nettie Rogers Shuler. WOMAN SUFFRAGE AND POLITICS: THE INNER STORY OF THE SUFFRAGE MOVEMENT, 1923. In 1995 we commemorated the passing of seventy-five years since the 1920 ratification of the Nineteenth Amendment which enfranchised American women. It required almost as many years for suffragists to achieve this victory: between 1848, when a resolution calling for woman suffrage was adopted at the Seneca Falls Convention, to 1920, when the federal woman suffrage amendment was finally ratified, several generations of suffragists labored tirelessly for the cause. Many did not live to see its successful conclusion.

  • The Fight for Ratification
    Origins: 1848 - 1869
    The woman suffrage movement, which began in the northeastern United States, developed in the context of antebellum reform. Many women including Sarah and Angelina Grimke, Abby Kelly, Lucretia Mott, and Lucy Stone began speaking out for woman's rights when their efforts to participate equally with men in the great reform movements of the dayincluding antislavery and temperancewere rebuffed. These early feminists demanded a wide range of changes in woman's social, moral, legal, educational, and economic status; the right to vote was not their initial focus. Indeed, those present at the Seneca Falls Convention regarded the resolution demanding the vote as the most extreme of all their demands, and adopted it by a narrow margin at the insistence of Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Frederick Douglass.

Throughout 1998, the tremendous positive changes brought about by the movement were celebrated in offices, schools, and communities nationwide in thousands of events. Because of countless millions of women who planned, organized, lectured, wrote, marched, petitioned, lobbied, paraded, and broke new ground in every field imaginable, our world is irrevocably changed. Women and men in our generation, and the ones that will follow us, are living the legacy of women's rights won against staggering odds in a revolution achieved without violence. Women have much to be proud of in the legacy of the Women's Rights Movement, and a great deal to celebrate on the anniversary of the founding of the Women's Rights Movement.
