Question

In the 1830's, women began to compare their lack of rights to that of what group ?

Answer 1

Women compared their lack of rights to Slaves.

Answer 2

Women started to compare themselves to African-Americans. This was because both of these groups essentially had no political, social, or legal rights. Both groups could not vote, own property, serve on a jury, be heard in a court of law, etc. This negatively impacted both groups for a significant amount of time.
