The History Place, Great speeches collection: Susan B. Anthony speech – Women’s Right to

Vote

“Friends and fellow citizens: I stand before you tonight under

indictment for the alleged crime of having voted in the last presidential

election, without having a lawful right to vote. It shall be my work this

evening to prove to you that in thus voting, I not only committed no

crime, but, instead, simply exercised my citizen’s rights, guaranteed to

me and all United States citizens by the National Constitution, beyond the

powers of any state to deny.

The preamble of the Federal Constitution says:

“We the people of the United States, in order to form a more

perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for

the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the

blessings of liberty to ourselves and prosperity, do ordain and establish

this constitution for the United States of America.”

It was we, the people, not we, the white male citizens, nor yet we,

the male citizens, but we, the whole people, who formed the Union. And

we formed it, not to give the blessings of liberty, but to secure them; not

to the half of ourselves and the half of our prosperity, but to the whole

people – women as well as men. And it is downright mockery to talk to

women about their enjoyment of the blessings of liberty while they are

denied the use of the only means securing them provided by this

democratic republican government – the ballot.”

Background Information

In the 1800’s, women in the United States did not have the same

rights as men. It was against the law for them to vote. A woman named

Susan B. Anthony helped lead a movement known as The Suffrage

Movement.

The Vote

By Rebecca Hershey

Imagine that when you grow up you are not allowed to vote for the next

President of the United States. You are not allowed to vote on certain laws that

might affect you and your family. And your opinion does not matter. Why? You are

a woman and you do not have the right to vote. If you try to vote you will be

arrested.

That was then perhaps when your grandmother’s mother was a little girl.

Today, however, voting is one of the most important rights we all have, men and

women.

But how did things change?

There were many women through the years that worked very hard,

sometimes devoting their entire lives, giving speeches, forming women’s groups,

picketing, writing politicians, anything they could do to change the laws that kept

women from voting.

But there was one little girl who grew up to be one of the most important

women of all in the rights for women to vote. In 1820 in a small town in Adams,

Massachusetts, a little girl was born.

She was one of eight children. Her mother and father named her Susan

Brownell Anthony. When Susan was eleven years old, she rushed home from

school very upset. She told her father that the teacher refused to teach her long –

division in her math class because she was a girl and there was no need for her to

know such things. Her father was just as upset and decided that from that moment

on to home – school all eight of his children.

When Susan grew up, she became a teacher. It was one of the few

occupation’s women could pursue. Susan taught for several years but then had to

go home to help take care of their farm.

When she did venture from home again, it was to meet a woman many

people were talking about, Elizabeth Cady Stanton. She was very involved in the

fight for Women’s Rights, but men felt that she was stirring up trouble. However,

Susan very much wanted to meet her, and she did.

In 1872, Susan and other women tried to vote in their hometown but were

quickly arrested. But nothing could stop Susan Anthony or Elizabeth Stanton and

many others. It was a cause worth fighting for.

More than 10 years later, women picketed outside the White House asking

President Wilson to pass an amendment to give women the right to vote. On this

day, November 14, 1917 many of the women peacefully picketing was injured by

soldiers and violence broke out. The women were again arrested, but as the

country began hearing about the terrible unrest in the country there were signs of

real change.

Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Stanton kept up the fight for Women’s Rights

for more than 60 years. One of the last things Susan said in a speech was, “failure

impossible.” And she was right.

Although Susan died in 1906, 11 years before the Nineteenth Amendment to

the United States Constitution gave women the right to vote, her work was not in

vain.

On August 26, 1920, 20 million women finally won the right to vote. So when

YOU are old enough, remember to vote! Remember Susan B. Anthony and all the

other women of courage who fought to make it possible.
