US President Donald Trump pardoned women suffrage movement activist Susan B Anthony who was arrested in 1872 for voting illegally. Born in 1820, Anthony began working for the anti-slavery movement at 17 and also demanded equal pay for equal work. She was pardoned on 100th anniversary of the 19th Amendment, which granted women the right to vote in the US.
