A Glorified Failure: The Seneca Falls Convention of 1848
Courtesy of "Not for ourselves alone: The story of Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony."
"To have drunkards, idiots, horse-racing, rumselling rowdies, ignorant foreigners, and silly boys fully recognized, while we ourselves are thrust out from all the rights that belong to citizens, it is too grossly insulting to... be longer quietly submitted to."
~ Elizabeth Stanton
THESIS
While the Seneca Falls Convention produced landmark pieces of communication such as the Declaration of Rights and Sentiments and laid a foundation for the women’s rights movement, the convention’s message failed to bring significant change within its time as well as lacked racial inclusiveness.
