Just want Carrie Chapman Catt?
Hello! My name is Carrie. When I was a little girl, I loved living on my family's farm. One day, I saw that my mother couldn't vote like my father could. I thought, 'That's not fair!'. I decided that when I grew up, I wanted to help make things fair for everyone.
When I got bigger, I became a leader of a group of women who also believed everyone should be treated the same. We were called suffragists. That's a big word that means we wanted women to have the right to vote. We talked to people, we gave speeches, and we marched in parades to share our big, important idea.
We worked together for a long, long time. It wasn't always easy, but we never gave up. Then, one very happy day in the year 1920, something wonderful happened. A new rule, called the 19th Amendment, was made. This new rule said that women could finally vote, just like men. We were all so proud.
I lived to be 88 years old. I was so happy I got to see my dream come true. Today, people remember me as someone who helped make the world a fairer place. Because of the work my friends and I did, women all across the country can help choose our leaders.
