From 1868 to 1870 women's suffrage crusaders Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony published a women's newspaper called "The Revolution." The newspaper, dedicated to political and cultural news, was published by and for women. In the first edition, Stanton and Anthony address their readers with "What Congress Needs"
In 2008, what does Congress need?
The moment we begin to fear the opinions of others and hesitate to tell the truth that is in us, and from motives of policy are silent when we should speak, the divine floods of light and life no longer flow into our souls.
-Elizabeth Cady Stanton, 1890
