Abstract

Women’s suffrage was one aspect of a broader movement that has been dubbed first-wave feminism in the United States in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Women sought to remove legal and political barriers to equality. The right to vote emerged as one of the key goals of the movement, both in the United States and abroad, but women also endeavored to end formal and informal obstacles to education, property rights, and economic empowerment.
