Elizabeth Cady Stanton

Elizabeth Cady Stanton was unwilling to accept the status quo and she insisted that women deserved to have the right to vote, and they deserved to have treat them as equals. She joined forces with many other women to fight in the Women's Rights Movement and kept on working even when she was laughed at and made fun of.
