Susan B. Anthony believed that women should have the same rights as men. She fought for this right in many different ways, but she is best known for demonstrating civil disobedience by voting illegally. Unfortunately, Anthony fought for women's rights all her life, but her dreams didn't come true until 14 years after her death ("Susan" Bio). Anthony attended a women's rights convention before she began campaigning for women's rights ("Susan" Encyclopedia, par. 2). Also before beginning her campaign, Anthony worked at Canajoharie Academy in 1846. She taught there for two years. While there, Anthony campaigned for all colleges to open their doors to everyone, regardless of race or gender. Thanks to Anthony, women began to frequent civil disobedience.

Anthony's lawyer demanded a new trial. “The motion was denied and the defendant was ordered to pay a fine of $100.” Antony never paid the $100 fine ("November 1st" par.
