This is a pretty long area....anywho, this is all about the abolitonists and womans rights, etc etc


 * //First Of All, ABOLITIONISTS helped to end slavery.

Most of them demanded the IMMEDIATE freeing of slaves (as we already know)

So some main ideas expressed by the abolitionists are...//**
 * 1) Slaves should be immediatly freed
 * 2) Slavery was Morally wrong

 * 4) Everyone was created equal- Democracy

Some of those abolitionists include

 * He was a fugitive slave
 * He also wrote articles in News papers
 * He gave speeches about slavery also

No, sufferage does not mean to suffer, It means the right to vote

Supporters of the sufferage movement expressed that all men AND WOMEN are created EQUAL

So they thought that Men and woman should have the basic rights...
 * 1) The right to vote
 * 2) Education (they could not go to college)
 * 3) Equal opportunities in buisness
 * 4) And the right to own property (those rights were limited)
