== =Sennaca Falls Convention=

While at a World Anti-Slavery convention Lucretia Mott and Elizabeth Cady Stanton had to sit in the back with the other women because there opinion or input didn't matter, even though it was a WORLD convention. They were accompanied their husbands but the female delegates weren't allowed to delegate. They realized how unfair and mistreated women were and decided to make a change. That was when a women's convention was born. Stanton than wrote a Declaration of Sentiments, a document declaring women's rights modeled on the Declaration of Independence. The Declaration of Sentiments stated that women would have the same rights as men. Men would let women vote and own land. It took 50 years for women to achieve suffrage than it did for African American Men.
