Susan B. Anthony confronted multiple challenges in advocating for women's rights, including social opposition and legal barriers. As a key figure in the suffrage movement, she faced strong resistance from both men and women who believed that women should not participate in politics. Additionally, her activism led her to be arrested for voting in the 1872 election, highlighting the discrimination women faced. Despite these obstacles, Anthony tirelessly campaigned for legal equality, co-founding the National Woman Suffrage Association and delivering powerful speeches that laid the groundwork for future advocacy.
