旁白:本集讲述了美国妇女争取选举权的漫长而曲折的历程,从1848年的塞内卡福尔斯大会开始,到美国平等权利协会的分裂,展现了女权运动先驱们的努力与挑战,以及种族歧视对运动的影响。她们面临着来自社会、政治和自身内部的多重阻力,最终导致运动分裂成两个阵营,延缓了妇女获得选举权的进程。 伊丽莎白·凯迪·斯坦顿:我始终相信男女平等,并为争取妇女的权利而奋斗终生。在塞内卡福尔斯大会上,我大胆地提出了妇女选举权的议案,尽管当时这被许多人视为激进和不切实际,但我坚信,没有政治权力,妇女就无法真正获得平等。我撰写了《情感宣言》,呼吁妇女享有与男性相同的权利,并为此付出了巨大的努力。虽然我与苏珊·B·安东尼合作多年,但在争取选举权的过程中,我们也面临着许多分歧,尤其是在如何处理与黑人争取选举权运动的关系上,我的观点有时过于激进,甚至带有种族主义色彩,这让我感到非常后悔。 苏珊·B·安东尼:我毕生致力于争取妇女的选举权,并为此付出了巨大的努力。我与伊丽莎白·凯迪·斯坦顿合作多年,我们一起组织了无数的集会和游行,并出版了《革命》报,宣传女权运动的理念。我们面临着来自社会的巨大压力和反对,但我们从未放弃。虽然我与伊丽莎白在策略上存在分歧,但我始终尊重她的才华和贡献。在与黑人争取选举权运动的关系上,我们也面临着挑战,但我们始终坚持争取所有人的平等权利。 弗雷德里克·道格拉斯:作为一个逃亡奴隶,我深知争取平等权利的艰辛。我支持妇女选举权,因为我相信所有的人都应该享有平等的权利。在塞内卡福尔斯大会上,我为妇女选举权的议案投了赞成票,并为争取这一目标而努力。然而,在与妇女争取选举权运动的合作中,我发现了一些问题,特别是伊丽莎白·凯迪·斯坦顿的一些言论带有明显的种族主义色彩,这让我感到非常失望。我认为,在当时的历史背景下,黑人男性的选举权比白人女性的选举权更为紧迫,因为黑人男性面临着更直接的生存威胁。 露西·斯通:我致力于争取所有人的平等权利,我相信黑人选举权和妇女选举权应该同时得到保障。然而,在与伊丽莎白·凯迪·斯坦顿和苏珊·B·安东尼的合作中,我发现我们对策略存在分歧。我更倾向于与共和党合作,争取黑人选举权的优先获得保障,然后再争取妇女选举权。这种策略上的分歧最终导致了美国平等权利协会的分裂,这让我感到非常遗憾。 弗朗西斯·埃伦·沃特金斯·哈珀:作为一名黑人女性,我经历了种族歧视和性别歧视的双重压迫。在争取平等权利的过程中,我发现白人女性往往忽视黑人女性的独特困境,这让我感到非常失望。在第十五修正案的讨论中,我支持这一修正案,因为我相信黑人男性的选举权比白人女性的选举权更为紧迫。虽然我尊重女权运动的努力,但我认为,在争取平等权利的过程中,我们不能忽视种族问题。

Shownotes Transcript

On July 19th, 1848, 300 female and male delegates gathered in a church in Seneca Falls, New York for America’s first women’s rights convention. After two days, 100 of the attendees signed the Declaration of Sentiments, a radical manifesto affirming the equality of men and women. It was the start of the women’s rights revolution.

Over the next two decades, Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony built a movement to push for women’s suffrage. They worked side by side with abolitionists, certain their causes were intertwined. But in the years after the Civil War, racial tensions broke apart the decades-old alliance between those fighting for the end of slavery and those fighting for women’s voting rights.
