Why did many women's rights activists object to the wording of the 15th amendment

They objected because women were not included in voting, although other races were. They wanted to be included in the amendment and gain the right to suffrage.

Because it didnt give them the right to vote. Women gained that right in the 19th amendment.


Hope that helps!!
