In this video that we made for this subject (Education for citizenship) we explain the hard-working aims of Lucretia Mott during all her life. This woman was very prominent and she represented a figure who fought for women´s rights. Here you have what she made to realize some of women´s main rights (equal salary and vote).
Lucretia Mott (1793-1880) was one of the leading voices of the abolitionist and feminist movements of her time. Raised in a Quaker community, she became a member of the society´s ministry and adopted its anty-slavery views.
Mott helped from the Philadelphia Female Anty-Slavery Society in 1833, and later was among the founers of the American Women´s Right Movement. Mott´s feminist philosophywas outlined in her Discourse on Women (1850), in which she argued for equal economic opportunity and voting rigths. After helping to establish Swarthmore College in 1864, she served as head of the American Equal Rights Association.
