Susan Brownell Anthony was born on February 15, 1820, in Massachusetts. When she was seven years old, her family moved to New York. Susan received her education at a school her father ran. As soon as Susan finished school, she went right to work. She became a teacher in New York in 1839. In those days, very few women worked outside their homes. While Susan was teaching there, she earned just one-fifth of the pay a man got in the same job. She knew this was not fair. Susan wanted fair treatment as well as equal pay, so she devoted herself to the rights of women and supported complete equality between men and women. In 1851, Susan met Elizabeth Cady Stanton. They became very good friends and worked together for over 50 years fighting for women’s rights. In 1868, Susan, together with Elizabeth, published The Revolution, which was a weekly journal about women’s rights and suffrage. At that time, women were not given the vote because they were considered to be ‘incapable of rational thought’. She became vice-president-at-large of the National Woman’s Suffrage Association (NWSA) from 1869 until 1892, when she became president. On November 5th, 1872, Susan was arrested for voting illegally in the presidential election. She was charged a fine but she wouldn’t pay it. When Susan died on March 13th, 1906, women in four states had the right to vote. Fourteen years later, the Nineteenth Amendment gave all American women that right. Susan B. Anthony was honored on the US dollar coin in 1979.

Why was Susan arrested?
