As Hillary Clinton accepts the nomination, Susan B. Anthony gets thanks for paving the way
Rochester Mayor Lovely Warren, who also happens to be the first female leader of her city, left a large thank-you note beside Anthony’s grave on Wednesday, the day after Hillary Clinton’s nomination was sealed, and invited people to come and offer their own words of gratitude.
“We thought you might like to know that for the first time in history, a woman is running for president representing a major party,” says the message on the blown up sign. “144 years ago your illegal vote got you arrested. It took another 48 years for women to finally gain the right to vote. Thank you for paving the way.”
