The Seneca Falls Declaration of Sentiments and Resolutions, paved the way for the womens rights movement in 1848. It is written in the style of the Declaration of Independence, to try to hint at the fact that letting women have equal rights is what is truly in line with American Values. It essentially says to not let women have their unalienable rights, would be against god, constitutional values, and the principles in the Declaration of Independence. Most American men in power would not want to admit that they disagreed with these values, which is why the declaration of sentiments was an effective document for gaining support for women.
