Many students have heard about the Declaration of Sentiments or might have even read portions of it. Now students can go behind the scenes with this primary source excerpt!

This primary source worksheet features a passage written by Elizabeth Cady Stanton in Eighty Years and More in which explains why she and Lucretia Mott decided the time had come to organize the Seneca Falls Convention of 1848 which ushered in the Women's Rights Movement in the United States.
