So-called voting rights operative Susan B. Anthony, 148 years ago, specifically on November 3, 1872, tried to vote in the presidential election, but was arrested because of this attempt. She had deliberately provoked her arrest in New York to gain publicity for the cause of women's rights. [...]
She had deliberately provoked her arrest in New York to gain publicity for the cause of women's rights to vote.
Anthony was brought to trial, convicted, and fined $100 after trying to vote. After her threat of not knowing the court ruling and not paying the fine, the judge indicated that she could be forgiven on condition that she leave New York state immediately.
Susan B. Anthony was a powerful activist for women's right to vote.
She did not take into account continued personal insults during her nearly semi-major campaign for women's right to vote and continued work on women's rights until 1906, when she also passed away at the age of 86.
Its campaign prepared the grounds for approval in 1920 of the 19th US Constitution Amendment, which gives American women the right to vote.
