On a rich purple background a cartoon image of diverse women wearing colorful clothes and waving and smiling. Above the image are the words If particular care and attention is not paid to the ladies, we are determined to foment a rebellion, and will not hold ourselves bound by any laws in which we have no voice, or representation. - Abigail Adams.

With a pale peach background and a beautiful cartoon drawing style with a modern style are 4 women: one with reddish hair and warm skin tone, one with light tan skin and black straight layered long hair, one woman with rich brown skin and a head turban, and one woman wearing a blue hijab with warm tan skin.

Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Activist.
