INCLUDED ARE SPEECHES, DISCUSSIONS and LETTERS PRESENTED AT THE PROCEEDINGS. __________ BACKGROUND. By APRIL 1865, the Civil War had effectively ended and Emancipation was duly given to black slaves. And yet, the right to vote was still withheld from black men and all women of any race or color. In MAY 1866, the first meeting of the newly formed American Equal Rights Association (AERA) was held to develop strategies to set into law UNIVERSAL SUFFRAGE, the right to vote regardless of complexion, race or sex of the person. _____ MAY 1867, a year later, the call to attend the First Anniversary Meeting of the AERA was issued, stating: _____ "The object of this Association is to SECURE EQUAL RIGHTS TO ALL AMERICAN CITIZENS, ESPECIALLY THE RIGHT OF SUFFRAGE, IRRESPECTIVE OF RACE, COLOR OR SEX. American Democracy has interpreted the Declaration of Independence in the interest of slavery, restricting suffrage and citizenship to a white male minority. The black man is still denied the crowning right of citizenship, even in the nominally free States, though the fires of civil war have melted the chains of chattelism, and a hundred battle-fields attest his courage and patriotism. Half our population are disfranchised on the ground of sex; and though compelled to obey the law and taxed to support the government, they have no voice in the legislation of the country. This Association, then, has a mission to perform, the magnitude and importance of which cannot be over-estimated." _______________ DEMAND FOR THE VOTE! _____ JULY1848, at the first Woman's Rights Convention, Seneca Falls, NY, ELIZABETH CADY STANTON fiercely defended woman suffrage (woman's right to vote), saying, "[SUFFRAGE] is the right by which all others shall be obtained." __________ IN THIS BOOKLET, SEE PAGE 9, SPEECH OF ELIZABETH CADY STANTON (10pp). She said, "SUFFRAGE IS A NATURAL RIGHT as necessary to man under government, for the protection of person and property, as are air and motion to life," and further "[voting] --the right of self-government. THAT LITTLE PIECE OF PAPER DROPPED INTO A BOX is the symbol of equality, of citizenship, of wealth, virtue, education, self-protection, dignity, independence and power --the mightiest engine yet placed in the hand of man for the uprooting of ignorance, tyranny, superstition, the overturning of thrones, altars, kings, popes, despotisms, monarchies and empires." ___ AND SEE PAGES 63, 66, SPEECH OF SOJOURNER TRUTH (former slave) believing WOMEN SHOULD HAVE THE SAME AMOUNT OF RIGHTS AS MEN. She said, "There is a great stir about colored men getting their rights, but not a word about the colored women; and if colored men get their rights, and not colored women theirs, you see the colored men will be masters over the women, and it will be just as bad as it was before. So I am for keeping the thing going while things are stirring; because if we wait till it is still, it will take a great while to get it going again . . . I want women to have their rights . I am above eighty years old; it is about time for me to be going. I have been forty years a slave and forty years free and would be here forty years more to have equal rights for all." ___ Then SOJOURNER SANG A SONG, its lyrics are recorded in print in the St. Louis Globe-Democrat, May 18, 1867, pp 6.
