		She soon became an active part of the movement and was appointed the director of field activities in 1889.
		All through the 1890s the NAWSA focused on winning the vote state by state and that is why many state campaigns took place.

		In 1892 the NAWSA established the Committee on Southern Work, and by 1893 the Georgia chapter had members in five counties.
		Further impetus for the suffrage movement in Georgia came in 1895, when the NAWSA held their annual meeting in Atlanta, the first held outside of Washington, D.C. The organization's headquarters was at the Aragon Hotel, and meetings were held at DeGive's Opera House.

		Indeed, though the NAWSA never stopped using natural rights arguments for woman suffrage, white suffragists--still indignant that fl men were enfranchised ahead of them and angry at the ease with which immigrant men were enfranchised--drifted away from insistence upon universal suffrage and increasingly employed racist and nativist rhetoric and tactics.
		The NAWSA also expanded its educational efforts, distributing literature to schools and libraries, sponsoring debates, disseminating a new and less radical image of their movement's own history in which Anthony was virtually canonized.
		Her return to the NAWSA presidency in late 1915 and the adoption shortly thereafter of her "Winning Plan" harnessed the power of the massive but sluggish NAWSA and initiated the final, victorious suffrage drive.
