Why did the Womens Suffrage Movement evolve out of the Abolitionist movement?
The Abolitionist Movement was about equality for all people despite the color of their skin. Women’s Suffrage was about women having equal rights & being granted the right to vote. Equality for all was the basic theme for both movements. While African-Americans & sympathic white people fought for racial equality, women & sympathic parties felt it the perfect time to add on gender equality.
