Which 1848 gathering issued the Declaration of Sentiments for women's rights?

The Seneca Falls Convention was the 1848 gathering that issued the Declaration of Sentiments for women's rights. It met on July 19–20 in Seneca Falls, New York, and is widely regarded as the first organized women's-rights convention in the United States.

Elizabeth Cady Stanton drafted the Declaration of Sentiments, which modeled its language on the Declaration of Independence and declared that women and men were created equal. The convention adopted twelve resolutions; the suffrage resolution passed despite debate.

Lucretia Mott, Martha Coffin Wright, Mary Ann McClintock and Jane Hunt helped organize the meeting. Frederick Douglass attended and spoke in support of the voting-rights resolution.

The convention did not immediately secure a constitutional amendment. It launched an enduring reform movement that eventually contributed to the Nineteenth Amendment's ratification in 1920.
