Read the Declaration of Sentiments from the Seneca Falls Convention - summarize

This Document is split into two portions. These two portions are the Declaration of Sentiments and the resolutions of the women. The first section is structured the same as the Declaration of Independence. This document starts off by stating the main reason why the Declaration was written. It was a document pertaining to women rights. It states that women's rights were oppressed by the men. It stated that women should have the basic rights that men held. For instance, owning property, voting, divorce, and more. The second part stated that women are equal to men.
