We hold these truths to be self-evident, that
all men are created equal, that they are endowed
by their Creator with certain unalienable
Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty
and the Pursuit of Happiness
 
Excuse me! don’t you mean WOMEN and
men
Let me break it down for you
Lizzy C Stanton on the mic
This is for all my fellow suffragists
The names elizabeth stanton.
Lizzy C. stanton
Born in Johnston, New york and now it's time
to start ranting
A school made for the best, Emma Willard academy,
But the thing that’s sad to me
Is that college is the anatomy
But the men won’t have it
They try to put us down
First my qualities
Then my Novelties,
And in these colonies
I think thats its time that we achieve these
equalities
Hung with my cousin Gerrit Smith,
An Abolitionist with a great wit,
After that Met HB Stanton
married now
And after I gave my vow,
I think I went on to fight somehow
I’m Lucretia Mott,
Schooled in Hudson Valley,
Good education but i wanted to start a rally.
Women are deprived
Despised
And terrified
And until we get our rights we won’t be
satisfied
In the year 1833,
We went to the convention against slavery.
“Unite the abolitionists fight for emancipation.
We fought for it, but now where’s our representation?
We have the same desire.
These men are all liars,
The situations dire
But we’ve got the fire.
MMM
And this actually belongs in the fire
Wait. So let’s start a movement,
For the improvement
of women’s rights,
This treatement bites.
We’ll put up a nasty fight,
Until our ideas take flight.
The US was founded long ago, yet for whatever
reason WOMEN STILL can't vote
We want our rights, WOMEN AND MEN should be
said; in the declaration of independence
We shouldn’t be dependent on men......yeahhhhhhhh
We need a conventiooonnnn….yeahhhh
Well now we have it, Seneca Falls (1848!!!!)
Equality calls
We need to represent all.
We can’t forget,
Our strong mindset.
We need our rights,
Let’s start some fights.
Wait, what do you women even want?
What do we want?
This is quite obvious isn’t it?
No, what more could you need?
You are taken care of, your life is easy.
You should be cleaning, cooking, and taking
care of my children.
Your children?
That’s exactly the problem.
We want rights!
For our children.
We want rights!
To make billions.
We want rights!
To have positions.
Wouldn’t you rather have,
An easy life,
Why would you ever,
Not want to be my wife.
I work through the day,
The night as well,
This life is hard,
And your’s is swell.
What!
Were you raised in hell?
So let me tell you.
“He has compelled her to submit to laws,
in the formation of which she had no voice.”
But wouldn’t it be better if she had a choice
A choice where she can be considered not civilly dead
“He has taken from her all right
in property, even to the wages she earns.”
But with that comes the idea that men must
first learn
We aren’t to be taken advantage
Nor micromanaged
I am not your property
I don’t want to be a slave in my own society,
After all, perfection’s our piety,
And what about sobriety?
As you can see we have no dubiety.
“For the work of a day
For the taxes we pay
For the laws we obey
We just want something to say”
It starts with a vote,
We want a say,
So stop your gloat
And Give us rights today
