Tear-Jerking Message Left At Susan B. Anthony Grave As Hillary Accepts Nomination

What we’re witnessing right now in this election is beyond historic. It’s been nearly 100 years since women gained the right to vote, but not until this year has a woman earned the nomination of a major political party. Hillary Clinton is making history, and it’s all thanks to a woman named Susan B. Anthony.

Now, I don’t want to assume everyone knows who Susan B. Anthony is, but if you don’t, you should, and you can read more about her life’s work here. To put it simply, without Anthony’s fight with the women’s suffrage movement, women would not be considered equal members of society. She lead the charge which lead to women being able to finally vote. She never got to see the fruit of her hard work, but we are a greater nation for it. The Susan B. Anthony Amendment of 1920 allows adult women the right to vote.

Flash forward to nearly a century later, and Hillary Clinton is the candidate for president for the Democratic Party. Now, not only can women vote, but they can be leader of the free world.

Paying tribute and offering thanks to the woman who paved the way for women everywhere is the city of Rochester, NY, where Susan B. Anthony lived, died, and was laid to rest. Someone in particular offering their gratitude is the first female Mayor of Rochester, Lovely Warren.

At the site of Anthony’s grave, Lovely left a thank you message, honoring the work of the woman warrior of equality, and letting her know that Clinton is the Democratic nominee.


 The message reads:

“Dear Susan B., We though might like to know that for the first time in history, a woman is running for President representing a major party. 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.” – Lovely Warren (The first female mayor of Rochester)


 And here it is next to Anthony’s grave site:


And people can also leave a message of thanks themselves:

If this doesn’t move you to tears, I don’t know what will.

Thank you, Susan. Thank you.
