What did Susan B. Anthony do?

Answer 1

Susan B Anthony attempted to cast a vote in an election even though she, as a woman, was not eligible. She argued that the law was invalid.

She made a speech contending that her crime was "alleged" by others but not valid under the constitution; that she was charged but the charge was not yet proven. An academic point as she was fined $100 which she refused to pay.

Susan B. Anthony was a prominent American suffragist, social reformer, and women's rights activist who played a pivotal role in the women's suffrage movement in the United States. She campaigned tirelessly for women's right to vote, equal pay for equal work, and women's rights overall. She co-founded the National Woman Suffrage Association with Elizabeth Cady Stanton, advocated for women's suffrage through speeches, publications, and lobbying efforts, and played a key role in the passage of the Nineteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which granted women the right to vote.
