Introduction Famous Quotation: "Men, their rights, and nothing more; women, their rights, and nothing less."

Best known for: helping women getting the right to vote.

What I find interesting: She tried to stop slavery and helping women fight for the right to vote for almost her whole life.

3 Key Qualities:

1. Persevered 2. Bravery 3. Impact: made a difference

I chose this person because...

She seemed interesting and because she helped women vote.

Overcame a Hardship/Challenge Women could only work a few jobs because men were paid more for the same work.

I think it was hard because if Susan was not paid fairly, she could not afford school to get a better job.

Overcame a Hardship

Susan B. Anthony was fined $100 for voting for president. Itwas hard because $100 dollars is a lot of money in 1820-1906.

I think it was hard because she could have lost a lot of money but it did not stop her, even though $100 is a lot of money.

Showed Compassion and Empathy She showed compassion and empathy for women who wanted to vote.

I think it was nice because she thought of other women and how they must have felt sad and angry because of the unfair laws that stopped women from voting and owning property.

Took Action She took action by helping women's right to vote by giving speeches and publishing articles.

She travelled around the world with Elizabeth Cady Stanton to spread the word. The speeches helped by convincing other people except for most lawmakers.

I think it was hard changing most lawmakers' minds.

Persevered Susan continued for women's right to vote by giving speeches. It took more time because other people did not agree with her.

I think she was frustrated because she did not get what she wanted and some people did not listen to her.

Impact: How Things are Different Today Susan B. Anthony made a difference because today women are allowed to vote and back then women were not allowed to vote.

Even though she never got the chance to vote, her work got women today the chance to vote.

Viewed Problems as Opportunities Susan B. Anthony took feedback from Cady Stanton about what to write in the newspaper or what to write for the speeches.

I think it was nice that she took feedback because she did not have to take feedback.

Demonstrated Bravery Susan B. Anthony was wearing an I voted sticker. I think she was brave because she could have been arrested for voting.

Communicated and Shared She communicated by giving powerful speeches.

I think she communicated a lot because she traveled to different countries. It was important because other people would not know that she was trying to change the world.

Susan B. Anthony Persevered when: She did not get the women's right to vote so she kept trying for women's right to vote.
