Foundations of Women's Rights

Dive into the historic Declaration of Sentiments, a landmark document that played a pivotal role in the early women's rights movement in the United States. Authored primarily by Elizabeth Cady Stanton and presented at the Seneca Falls Convention in 1848, the declaration detailed the grievances and aspirations of women, drawing inspiration from the Declaration of Independence. It called for equal social, civil, and religious rights, setting the stage for future advocacy and monumental changes in the pursuit of gender equality.
