Elizabeth Cady Stanton was a prominent 19th century American women rights and civil rights activist. She had a very liberal upbringing and law was a very common subject that was discussed at home. Her early exposure to law made her realise that law discriminates heavily against women, especially married women, who had practically no property, income, employment, or even custody rights over their own children. She decided to fight for women’s rights and after growing up, she tirelessly campaigned for the women’s right to vote. Her campaigning partner was Susan B. Anthony; Elizabeth and Susan became a vital force in the women’s movement of the 19th century. Elizabeth formed the National Women’s Loyal League and eventually, after few years, established the National Woman Suffrage Association along with Susan. She spoke fearlessly about liberal divorce laws and the reproductive self-determination and soon became the most celebrated voice of the women reformers during the late years of her life. Her constant efforts really helped in bringing forth several changes and the most important of them was the Nineteenth Amendment which provided all citizens with the right to vote. She was a reformer, a writer and was also probably one of the most prominent feminist leaders America ever had.
