Susan B. Anthony. Perhaps the most famous and outspoken of the suffragettes. She died 14 years before women got the right to vote. 

How does this battle over suffrage make you feel? Would you fight as hard as those in the National Women's Party would for this right? When did your own country give all people the right to vote?
