Susan B. Anthony

When people think of Susan B. Anthony, they may think of her courageous vote placed before the 19th Amendment had passed, or perhaps of the short-lived Susan B. Anthony coin.  I know, for me, anyway, that was the case.  After becoming fascinated by the women’s suffrage movement, however, I longed to know more about the woman after whom the Amendment was named.  I picked up the young reader biography by Teri Kanefield, which I very highly recommend.  This video is based on information I found in this book.  This is my homemade attempt at trying to capture the highlights of Kanefield’s book and the incredible life of Susan B. Anthony.  It is my sincerest hope that if you, like me, knew little about Anthony’s life before this, that maybe you will feel inspired to read more and learn from this amazing woman.
