For nearly a decade Elon Musk has claimed Teslas can truly drive themselves. They can’t. Now California regulators, a Miami jury and a new class action suit are calling him on it.

After a series of lectures and discussions, the 300 attendees were presented with a Declaration of Sentiments and resolutions for debate and modification. Stanton wrote the Declaration in the style of the Declaration of Independence, emphasizing that women’s rights were also “self-evident.” /2

The Declaration then lists women’s grievances against the patriarchy, including being denied rights to property, a thorough education and fair employment. Among the resolutions was a demand for the right to vote, an issue that was debated vigorously, with some attendees wanting it removed. /3

Frederick Douglass, the only African American attendee, argued that the suffrage resolution should be included. Ultimately it was retained and 100 attendees signed the document. The Seneca Falls Convention attracted widespread attention and was soon followed by other women’s rights conventions. /end

Despite this environment, Malone graduated two years later with a B-plus average, becoming the first black student to obtain a degree from the University of Alabama. She later joined the DOJ’s civil rights division and led programs that helped minorities register to vote and run for office. /4

Malone and Hood were able to enroll after JFK federalized the Alabama National Guard to escort them. However, her troubles were far from over. She faced threats of violence, including a bomb that went off near her dorm room. She was also ostracized and subjected to hostility from other students. /3

A federal court held that the University of Alabama’s refusal to admit black students violated the Supreme Court’s ruling in Brown v. Board of Education. However, when Malone and James Hood attempted to enroll in the school, Alabama Governor George Wallace physically blocked the door. /2
