What was the main purpose of the Seneca Falls Convention in 1848?
Note
The Seneca Falls Convention, held in July 1848 in Seneca Falls, New York, was the first women's rights convention in the United States.
Organized by activists Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott, it aimed to address the social, civil, and religious rights of women. The convention produced the Declaration of Sentiments, which outlined grievances and demands for equality, including the right to vote. This landmark event marked the beginning of the organized women's rights movement in the U.S., laying the groundwork for future advocacy and significant advancements in women's rights throughout the following decades.
