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.
