Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

Declaration of Sentiments
9
The first women’s rights convention, the Seneca Falls Convention, is held in Seneca Falls, New York on July 19 - 20, 1848. Attended by approximately 300 people, the convention was limited to women the first day, with men invited for the second. Elizabeth Cady Stanton delivered her “Declaration of Sentiments,” which was followed by eleven resolutions. The ninth argued “That it is the duty of the women of this country to secure to themselves their sacred right to the elective franchise,” thus setting off the women's suffrage movement.
