OK so do you know who Susan B. Anthony is? I can bet a lot of you don't know who is she is or what she did in history off the top of your heads. I first learned about her in first grade when I played her in a class skit. I still have the recording of me playing her but that's not for you all to see. Moving on, she was an American civil rights leader and played an important role in women's rights movement in the 19th century. If you don't want to go through all the reading about her on Wikipedia or Google then watch the PowerPuff Girls episode called Equal Fights. It focuses on her and super villain that uses her.
This is Femme Fatale robbing a bank, the sack she is
holding is full of Susan B. Anthony coins.
The episode solely focused on this women super villain that didn't accept anything but Susan B. Anthony coins as her currency. Her name was Femme Fatale; she always said that men were nothing and she actually used feminism for her own personal gain. She convinced the girls that men and boys were mean and cruel to other girls and so in turn, the girls started to ignore what she did and started to bully men.
She explained who Susan B. Anthony was but not in the right way, she only told the girls part of what Susan B. Anthony did and what she stood for in history. In the end, the girls fought Femme Fatale and explained to her who Susan stood for and what she fought for. The whole purpose of this episode was to make fun of feminists that used feminism for their own personal gain. Which isn't the way to do things when involved with feminism and women empowerment.
I have met a few other feminists that did not know who she was. They know her name and know that she has her own coin but that's it. People in general just know that; some people feel that there's no need to know about how she got on the coin or anything. Come on people, we need to learn more about our history. Research it and learn it.
