Seneca Falls Convention
20 Jul 1848
Causes: At the London Antislavery convention, women (including Mott) were excluded from participating. Female abolotionists were angered and formed the Women's Rights Convention to advocate for women's right to vote, to own property, etc.
People: Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Lucretia Mott, Sojourner Truth
Effects: The Seneca Falls meeting launched the women's rights movement and showed how much of the reform in the 1800s was led by women, and in this situation, for other women.
