The primary goal of the suffragette movement was to secure voting rights for women. Emerging in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, this movement aimed to challenge and change societal norms that restricted women's participation in politics and public life. Suffragettes organized rallies, marches, and protests, often facing significant opposition and legal consequences. Prominent figures, such as Susan B. Anthony and Emmeline Pankhurst, became iconic representatives of the movement as they fought tirelessly for women's rights. Ultimately, their efforts culminated in significant legislative victories, including the 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution in 1920, which granted women the right to vote.
