Editing First wave

First Wave Feminists did not identify as feminists or first wavers. They were the brave women who fought for the right to vote. Women like Susan B. Anthony, Mary Wollstonecraft and Sujorner Truth could be noted as examples of early feminists. First wave women can be classified as women who sought for equal rights with men. Many of this early feminist thinking was inspired by Enlightenment thinkers such as Voltaire. 

It should also be noted that there were radical women from the very beginning. Emma Goldman, also known as red Emma was one of them. Emma was an arachist who fought for reproductive rights.
