Some tables make history.
In the early 1800s, women were barred from the ballot box. In 1848, a group led by Elizabeth Cady Stanton called a convention on women's rights, the first of its kind, in Seneca Falls, New York. A group of five women, including Stanton and Lucretia Mott, drafted a declaration of rights for women on this table as a statement of purpose for the convention.
Now known as the Declaration of Sentiments, the document was based on the Declaration of Independence. It proclaimed that "all men and women are created equal" and resolved that women would take action to claim the rights of citizenship denied to them by men.
The Declaration of Sentiments was adopted officially at the Seneca Falls Convention in July 1848 and signed by 68 women and 32 men. The convention and Declaration mark the start of the formal women’s rights movement in the United States.
The table on which Elizabeth Cady Stanton drafted the Declaration of Sentiments became an icon for woman suffragists.
