The Seneca Falls Convention was the first women's rights convention in the United States. Organizers Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott gathered over 300 people to discuss the social, civil, and religious rights of women. The event produced the 'Declaration of Sentiments,' modeled after the Declaration of Independence, which stated that 'all men and women are created equal.' It listed 18 grievances, including the lack of women's voting rights, property rights, and access to education and professions. The most controversial resolution was the demand for women's suffrage (the right to vote), which even some supporters thought was too radical. This event is considered the official beginning of the organized women's rights movement in the U.S., leading to decades of activism that eventually secured the 19th Amendment in 1920.
