What made Rosa turn her attention to bus segregation? They were areas where black women were often harassed, beaten, or raped. Parks had campaigned since the early 1940s to end sexual assault against women. After her 1955 arrest for refusing to give up her seat, she fought the rest of her life to achieve civil rights and end violence towards women. Bibliography McGuire, Danielle.

The NWP picketed the White House and many women, including Paul, were arrested for obstructing traffic. Paul began a hunger strike while in prison to protest the conditions there. Their campaign kept the cause of suffrage in the news during World War I and contributed to the passage of the 19th amendment enfranchising women. Not satisfied with women's still inequitable status, Paul shifted her focus to the passage of an Equal Rights Amendment. The ERA called for the rights of U.S. citizens to not be denied or abridged on the basis of sex. Although ERA has been continuously discussed in Congress since 1924, to this day there is still no amendment to the U.S. Constitution protecting rights on account of sex. Paul was a well-educated women who took a B.A. in Biology, a M.A. in Sociology, a Ph.D. in Economics, and three law degrees (LL.B., LL. M., Doctorate in Civil Laws) from various colleges.

She was an African-American abolitionist and women’s rights activist. Sojourner escaped from slavery in 1826 with an infant child in tow. She also fought the illegal sale of her son through the court system. In 1851, she gave her famous speech, “Ain’t I A Woman?” at the Ohio Women’s Rights Convention. From her speech: “If the first woman God ever made was strong enough to turn the world upside down all alone, these women together ought to be able to turn it back, and get it right side up again! And now they is asking to do it. The men better let them.” Her speeches spoke to the inequitable status of women in American society, but also to the disadvantaged status of black women within woman's sphere.

Title A name given to the resource Women's Rights Description An account of the resource The women's rights collection showcases women who dared to fight for rights, civil or otherwise. Throughout world history, women have frequently been excluded from full citizenship; these women sought to make their society more equitable by fighting for civil, political, economic, legal, or social rights. The women in this collection remind us that often the fight for women's rights is a fight for civil rights. They inspire us to make a positive difference towards the goal of social equality. Person An individual, biographical data, birth and death, etc. Birth Date 1820 Birthplace Adams, Massachusetts, USA Death Date 1906 Occupation Political leader for women's rights Biographical Text A prominent civil rights leader during the women’s suffrage movement in the 1800s, Susan Anthony was also involved in the anti-slavery movement and the temperance movement. Anthony was a tireless champion for women's rights. She never married in order to retain the few rights that a woman had in American society if she was single. A Quaker, her faith underwrote many of her views on egalitarianism. With Elizabeth Cady Stanton, she co-founded the women's rights journal, The Revolution. Anthony found a life-long friend in Stanton and, together, the two spent their lives making society a better and more equitable place for women. By the 1860s, Anthony occupied a new space for women in American society—that of a female political leader. After the passage of the 14th amendment to the US Constitution, Anthony cast her vote in the 1872 federal election, for which she was arrested. In the trial of Susan B. Anthony (1873), she gave a roaring speech on woman suffrage, repeatedly refusing the judge's order to silence herself. The judge found her guilty and made it impossible for her to appeal. In Minor v. Happersett (1874), the US Supreme Court conceded that women were citizens, but that the Constitution did not grant all citizens the right to vote. Bibliography Dubois, Ellen Carol.

Person An individual, biographical data, birth and death, etc. Birth Date 1838 Birthplace Homer, Ohio, USA Death Date 1927 Occupation Newspaper editor, stockbroker, presidential candidate Biographical Text Victoria Claflin Woodhull dared to be the first female candidate for President of the United States and the first woman (with her sister) to operate a brokerage firm on Wall Street. Woodhull was nominated for President of the United States of America by the Equal Rights Party in 1872. The Equal Rights Party was not one of the two dominant parties of the time though; a woman would not be nominated by a major political party until 2016 when the Democratic Party nominated <a href="http://womenwhodared.omeka.net/items/show/29">Hillary Clinton</a>. Because of her pro-labor and pro-suffrage stances, she earned support from many workers and suffragists. Some were turned off, however, by her radical political stances and her support of "free love." This movement stressed that women were treated, by law, as chattel when married. Free love proponents advocated that women should be free to leave unbearable marriages. Generally, free love advocates also supported the birth control movement so that women could enjoy sexual activity with their husbands without fear of large family sizes or complications of childbirth. Victoria Woodhull published a weekly newspaper that stressed her views that women should be enfranchised, that labor needed to unite to have some control over industrial relations, and other controversial matters. Her support of socialism also caused controversy, but the fact that she was a woman who dared to speak out on politics, marriage, economics, and women's issues was what made her truly unique.
