This document is set up to resemble the Declaration of Independence. It first restated the beginning of this document, to appeal to their audience. It claims that our nation has a responsibility to hold women as equals to men. Next they list off their grievances which overlooked all of the injustices they faced. These ranged from property discriminations to not being able to hold authority in churches. Overall it advocated for equal rights, more specifically sufrage. Another big idea was the concept of a thorough education for women- including college level degree. Following these grievances they list off the reasons why and how they should be resolved. Each grievance comes with a clean cut solution- providing little room for inquiry. The women of the Seneca Falls Convention held their beliefs highly that they should be equals with men in ever oppurtunity that is presented. Through logic and clear motives, they were able to depict these injustices within the Seneca Falls Declaration of Sentiments and Resolutions.
