Born Criminal - Matilda Joslyn Gage, Radical Suffragist (Paperback)

American Library Association Amelia Bloomer List Finalist Midwest Book Awards Winner Foreword INDIE Awards Finalist Benjamin Franklin Award Silver Award "All the crimes which I was not guilty of rushed through my mind. I failed to remember that I was a born criminal-a woman."-Matilda Joslyn Gage Radical, feminist, writer, suffragist-Matilda Joslyn Gage changed the course of United States history. She fought for equal rights for women not dependent on race, class, or religion. Yet her name has faded into obscurity. She is overlooked when her comrades, Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton, are celebrated. In the first biography on this important woman, Angelica Shirley Carpenter explores Gage's life, including her rise and fall within the movement she helped build. Carpenter's next book, The Voice of Liberty, features the woman suffrage movement's rousing protest of the Statue of Liberty. In 1886, Gage and other suffrage supporters sailed a cattle barge into the center of the dedication. Find out why they opposed this national icon by visiting sdhspress.com.
