An American feminist and social reformer, who was a militant supporter of women's rights and used her skills as a speaker and propagandist to fight for the Amendment 19 to the United States Constitution. The amendment passed in 1920 and gave women the right to vote and the rights of citizens. She also fought for an Equal Rights Amendment (ERA). The ERA, which would remove in one stroke all legal, economic, and social restrictions on women, was introduced into the United States Congress in 1923 but did not pass. Paul was born on 11th January 1885, in New Jersey. She earned her graduation degree from Swarthmore College and received M.A. and Ph.D. degrees from the University of Pennsylvania. She went to England in 1906 and was arrested three times in the next three years for "suffragist agitation" (fighting for women's rights). She came back to the U.S in 1909, and in 1913, she helped form the Woman Suffrage. In 1917, they established the National Woman's Party. She worked for women's equality all over the world during the 1920s and 1930s. The World Party for Equal Rights for Women was founded by her in 1928. Paul also worked to achieve world peace, which she believed can be brought about if women play an active role in world governments. She died on July 9, 1977, Moorestown, New Jersey, United States.
