Georgia Woman Suffrage Association : ウィキペディア英語版 | Georgia Woman Suffrage Association The Georgia Woman Suffrage Association was the first women's suffrage organization in the U.S. state of Georgia. It was founded in the 1890s by Helen Augusta Howard (1865-1934).〔A. Elizabeth Taylor. ("The Origin of the Woman Suffrage Movement in Georgia" ). ''The Georgia Historical Quarterly'' Vol. 28, No. 2 (June, 1944) , pp. 63-79.〕 The purpose of the association was to make people more aware of the inequality in voting practices, not to directly affect legislation. The women of the group did not see themselves as a political organization. Two main arguments for suffrage they used were (1) women are taxed therefore they should be represented and (2) democracy derives its power from those who are governed and women are governed. In 1894, Miss Howard spoke at the National Woman Suffrage Association in Washington, D.C. and convinced the delegates to have the next convention in Atlanta, GA. After the Atlanta convention in 1895, Susan B. Anthony came to visit Columbus and the Howard sisters. ==References==
