Susan B. Anthony was born on February 15, 1812, in Addams, Massachusetts. She lived up to 86 years old. Did you know that Susan B. Anthony had 7 other siblings? First, I will be talking about early life, next, I will be talking about facts, finally I will be talking about her accomplishments.
Susan grew up in Massachusetts then Susans family moved to New York in 1826. Susan then became a teacher in 1838; she stopped teaching in 1849. Susan then became a reformer, mostly in Rochester, New York.
Next, I will share some facts about Susan. The B. is her middle name and stands for Brownell. Her favorite food is sponge cake. She was also a lifelong friend of Fredrick Douglass.
Not only did Susan B. Anthony fight for women's rights, but she also fought for black people's right to vote. She also fought to end slavery. She accomplished ablation for Americans, and she also accomplished womens property rights.
I feel like she lived a good and full life, and she accomplished so much more than imagined for white women. In my opinion I don't fully agree with all her beliefs, but she was still very fun to research, and she was a really cool person.
