Susan B. Anthony: Early Life

Raised a Quaker, Susan B. Anthony, born in 1820, grew up surrounded by devotion to reform. Her family supported both her desire for an education and her choice not to marry, eschewing the life of “a drudge or a doll.”

This video is part of a lesson plan titled "What Makes a Change-Maker?: Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, and Frances Ellen Watkins Harper."
