Pauli Murray was one of the early leaders of the women's suffrage movement and she even coined the term "Jane Crow" to describe the segregation of women. In 1966 she co-founded the National Organization for Women. Her childhood home is in the works of being repaired and restored in order for it to become a historic landmark. She wrote many papers in favor of the women's suffrage and the inequality between men and women. 

This park was established in 1980 and marks the launching pad of the women's suffrage movement beginning. The first women's rights movement convention happened here. The park contains many of the important figures in the women's movement homes, such as Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Jane Hunt. The park is considered hallowed ground and is where the Declaration of Sentiments was written and signed. 

Before the arrival of the East India Trading company, Dhaka (or Dacca as it was then known) was an affluent commercial city which produced some of the worlds finest muslins and textiles. Soon after the arrival of the British, much of the manpower and natural resources in and around Dahka were exploited, allowing the British to make vast profits. Over time, because of Britian's free trade system which had no export or import tariffs, local industries in Dhaka and throughout India couldn't compete with the production capabilities of British factories.
