The Seneca Falls Convention

In 1848, about 300 activists met in Seneca Falls, New York, for the first convention in the United States devoted to women's rights. They discussed Elizabeth Cady Stanton’s proposed Declaration of Sentiments, which mirrored the language of the Declaration of Independence.

The show’s theme song is “Complacent” by Cheryl B. Engelhardt. You can find Cheryl online at cbemusic.com.
