Susan B. Anthony is a white abolitionist who fought to end slavery and the property ownership of women, but has become controversial in this day as she had said that women deserve the vote more than black men. Some white women began to draw comparisons between the enslavement of black people and the <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">oppression<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> that women face in a patriarchal society. Which I think is quite an inappropriate comparison. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The first event talked about in \u201cOne Hundred Years Towards Suffrage\u201d is the Declaration of indepence. Abigail Adams requests that her husband John \u201cremember the women\u201d, and in response he almost intentionally and mockingly, does the opposite and is one of the men responsible for the Declaration of Independence stating \u201cAll men are created equal\u201d <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Right from the START of our nation, women are being ignored and <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">othered<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. It\u2019s said that the use of\u00a0 \u201cman\/men\u201d is just a default, but it was insidiously used as a political\/legal loophole to deny women of their rights. This exclusive language continued through 1868 with the Fourteenth amendment, which was the first to define \u2018citizens\u2019 and \u2018voters\u2019 as \u2018male\u2019. It isn\u2019t until 1920 that the Nineteenth amendment was adopted nationwide, which granted everyone the right to vote, regardless of gender\/sex. But this is just the beginning, as women of color were still not guaranteed the right to vote. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>note: i know this is late, but i still wanted to share my thoughts on the article\/video \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The video, \u2018Untold Stories of Black Women\u201d mainly focused on the achievements and actions of Ida B.Wells.
