The nineteenth amendment achieved one of the stated goals of which event nearly 70 years earlier?
Viktor [21]

Correct answer:

<h2>F. Women's Convention at Seneca Falls</h2>

Further details:

The national meeting in Seneca Falls, New York, in 1848, was the first women's rights convention to be held in the United States, and was organized by women.  Elizabeth Cady Stanton was one of the principal organizers of the gathering, and also was the lead author of an important document issued by what we now call the "Seneca Falls Convention."  The <em>Declaration of Sentiments</em> was signed by 68 women and 32 men who had been among the participants in the convention. The document was modeled after Thomas Jefferson's Declaration of Independence.  In the way that Jefferson had listed grievances against the British monarchy, the Declaration of Sentiments listed grievances against how man had oppressed woman in regard to civil rights.  

The Seneca Falls convention was a significant starting point for the women's rights movement in the US.  The 19th Amendment, which granted voting rights to women, did not happen till about 70 years later.

The 19th Amendment to the Constitution reads as follows:

  • <em>The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex.</em>
  • <em>Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.</em>

The proposal to add such an amendment was first introduced in Congress in 1878, but Congress did not pass the amendment till 1919 -- after the experience of women taking on greater roles in the country during the First World War.  The amendment achieved ratification by a sufficient number of states and was added to the Constitution by August, 1920.
