Refer to the following text: 1.1 “Resolved, That such laws as conflict, in any way, with the true and substantial happiness of woman, are contrary to the great precept of nature, and of no validity; for this is superior in obligation to any other. Resolved, That all laws which prevent woman from occupying such a station in society as her conscience shall dictate, or which place her in a position inferior to that of man, are contrary to the great precept of nature, and therefore of no force or authority. Resolved, That woman is man’s equal—was intended to be so by the Creator, and the highest good of the race demands that she should be recognized as such. Resolved, That the women of this country ought to be enlightened in regard to the laws under which they live, that they may no longer publish their degradation, by declaring themselves satisfied with their present position, nor their ignorance, by asserting that they have all the rights they want. Resolved, That inasmuch as man, while claiming for himself intellectual superiority, does accord to woman moral superiority, it is pre-eminently his duty to encourage her to speak, and teach, as she has an opportunity, in all religious assemblies.” ——Declaration of Rights and Sentiments, 1848 Based on the text, the main purpose of the Seneca Falls convention was to A. declare the right to vote for women in the Northern states B. advocate the education of women through establishing all-female colleges C. assert the rights of women as equals to men morally, socially, and politically D. demand that the word women be added to the Declaration of Independence along with the word men AP U.S. History Free Practice Question #4 The alignment of free and slaves states shown on the map in the quiz above directly led to A. the passage of the Northwest Ordinance B. the formation of the Republican Party C. repudiation of Manifest Destiny D. an increase in nativist sentiment
