Elizabeth Cady Stanton

Elizabeth Cady Stanton was a revolutionary ahead of her time. Her vision for female equality was so far advanced from the barbaric thoughts of the masses. Her impact was not only felt in the media, but throughout the country during the Women's RIghts Movement. She is one of the more overlooked suffrage activists in the history of the United States. She is often overlooked in loo of Susan B. Anthony. I hadn't ever heard of Stanton until my second year in the journalism program. Now there are multiple classes where I am learning about Stanton. There should be more of an effort to teach about the doings of Stanton and the rest of the activists in the Women's Rights Movement.
