The woman’s suffragist movement is an important event in the history of politics. When women fought for the right to vote they were able to come together, black and white, as well as poor and rich. Historian Victoria Bissell Brown said it best when she said, “We tend to think of suffrage as an “on-off” switch. Women didn’t have the vote, then women did have the vote in 1920. The story is quite different.”(PBS para. 1)

I really liked this quote from Victoria Bissell Brown. I found it in one of my sources and decided to end my paper with it. Before I wrote this research paper this idea was true to me. Obviously I knew that women fought for the right to vote but I didn’t realize how long it actually took, or how much theses women gave up and suffered for thier right. The one thing i found most interesting was the stories. Also, the number of remarkable women tht fought like Susan B. Anthony. She was a great leader in the movement.
