Best Answer

Alice Paul.

She and other women held signs outside of the White House asking for women's rights. Many women were arrested and charged. But they kept on fighting. Finally, to break the spirit of the suffrage, the police arrested Alice. She survived on bread and water. She was very weak (so weak she couldn't walk) so she was sent to the prison hospital. Where she refused to eat as an attempt to fight for women's rights. They ended up having to feed her through a tube that led from her throat to her stomach.

There were several, generally known as Suffragettes if they were primarily concerned with Women"s suffrage. These included Elizabeth Cady ( not Candy) Stanton, Susan B. Anthony and Carrie Chapman Catt. Jane Addams, while not a suffragette per se, was involved in women:s rights as well as slum clearance, secular charity- and opposed US intervention in World War I- then called the Great European War. Ms. Addams was one of only a few women to have been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.
