 The <b>Susanb> B. Anthony Trial
Anthony saw that all of the legal disabilities faced by American women owed their existence to the simple fact that women lacked the vote.
It happened in Rochester, New York on November 5, 1872, and the event--and the trial for illegal voting that followed--would create a opportunity for Anthony to spread her arguments for women suffrage to a wider audience than ever before....
She would work tirelessly: giving speeches, petitioning Congress and state legislatures, publishing a feminist newspaper--all for a cause that would not succeed until the ratification of the Nineteenth Amendment fourteen years after her death in 1906.

 <b>Susanb> B. Anthony dollar - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The <b>Susanb> B. Anthony dollar is a United States coin minted between 1979 and 1981, and again in 1999.
The Anthony dollar is notable by numismatists because (as of 2005) it was the last coin produced for regular issue by the San Francisco Mint.
It was unpopular and was disparagingly referred to as the "Carter quarter" or the "Anthony quarter." Although not used much in circulation, it was accepted by some vending machines, including those of the United States Post Office and mass transit in large cities.

 <b>Susanb> Brownell Anthony
Anthony's commitment to women's education was reinforced at the end of the 19th century by her tireless fundraising to secure the funds necessary to allow for the admission of women to the University of Rochester.
Anthony and Stanton were against these amendments because they included the word "male." They believed that with the word "male" written in these amendments, it would be even harder for women to obtain the right to vote for women.
Anthony did not consider this the most pleasant task she ever faced -- she said she would rather make history than write it -- but nevertheless the first three volumes were published by 1886.

<b>Susanb> Brownell Anthony is best known to the current generation of Americans as the person whose face was depicted on a one-dollar coin that too much resembled a quarter.
Anthony's trial experience, and the Supreme Court's narrow interpretation of a Fourteenth Amendment claim in a case brought by a rejected female voter in Minor vs Happersett, convinced her that women would not win the vote through the courts, and that she must turn instead to legislatures or to the people directly.
Anthony and Stanton fought to keep the word "male" out of the Fourteenth Amendment, then petitioned Congress for a constitutional amendment guaranteeing "universal suffrage"--suffrage for both the newly freed slaves and for women.
