Anthony, Mott, and Stanton are all famous activists for women's rights in the US during the 19th and early 20th century. One of the biggest impacts that Lucretia Mott and Elizabeth Cady Stanton was organizing the Seneca Falls Convention in 1848. This was the first women's rights convention in US history. This convention revolved around discussing the legal, social, and political status of women in America. The ultimate goal was to discuss how American society limited women and how they could make a change. One of the biggest changes they wanted was equal political rights (especially the right to vote).
Susan B. Anthony was on board with this idea and helped to create the National American Woman Suffrage Association. The goal of this organization was to get women the right to vote in American society. The work of all three women helped lead to the passing of the 19th amendment, giving women the right to vote.
They were important because they were leaders in the women’s suffrage movement. Susan B Anthony was actually arrested for voting in an election because she was a woman.
