	THE LAST SUFFRAGIST
		The 1867-1869 crisis that occurred once woman suffragists realized their inability to win inclusion in the Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments not only led to animosity between suffragists and defenders of freedmen's rights; it also split suffragists into competing camps just at the moment that they launched a serious drive for political equality.
		In the place of their original high minded universality, suffragists increasingly focused exclusively on the need for the vote among white, middle class, educated women; they more and more counterposed their own disfranchisement against what they regarded as the unwarranted political power of men who were their natural inferiors, freedmen and immigrants.
		The racial exclusionism that characterized suffragists as much as their opponetns in the early twentieth century will cease to appear to the historians' eye a necessary concession and will come in for harsh critical judgment; even as we learn about all the work that African American women did for the suffrage cause nonetheless.
