First Women's Rights Convention Skit

* Everyone enters the room and takes their seats, patiently waiting for the convention to begin *Elizabeth clears her throat*
Elizabeth- May I have every one's attention please.
*She waits for the people to become silent*
Elizabeth- Thank you. This is the first ever Women's Rights convention, and I would like to thank Lucrietta Mott for helping me start this. I wouldn't have been able to do it with out her. *Everyone in the room claps*
Lucrietta- Thank you, Thank you very much.
Elizabeth- As I was saying, there is a very important issue that I thought we should discuss today, the constitution. It states that "All men are created equal". Does anyone know who they are talking about and who they are excluding?
Anne- (yells out) White men! The constitution excludes slaves and women!
Elizabeth- That's right. The men who wrote this were writing about white men. We need to change that.
Lucrietta Mott- We cannot let the men brainwash us by telling us that we are not as good as them. We can not let them make us believe that they are smarter then us. It doesn't matter what gender you are!
Anne- When they wrote the constitution they were making it convenient for people like them. They didn't really care about the rest of the country
Mary- (adds on) I was always told that white men were smarter the women and that black women were stupid. It's completely ridiculous. They made all that nonsense up.
Elizabeth- Exactly! If we change the constitution to say that all men AND women are created equal, it can change a lot of things for us.
Mary- How are we going to change the constitution? Won't it be extremely difficult?
*All the people begin to talk about this to each other**
Elizabeth- Excuse me everyone, may I have your attention. *waits for room to become silent* Thank you. Mary you are right, it will be difficult, but that doesn't mean that it is impossible.
Anne- We should have a strike!
*The people continue to sit around coming up with a plan that will change history**
*****THE END*****
