Women’s History Month–Valiant Women of the Vote

01 Mar Women’s History Month–Valiant Women of the Vote

March is Women’s History Month! Here’s What we’ll be blogging about:

• We’ll continue the celebration of the 100th Anniversary of women in the United States winning the right to vote.
• We’ll remember the Women’s Parade of March 3, 1913 through the eyes of fictional characters like Hattie Barton and Alice Barton Rivers.
• We’ll track the progress of the Nineteenth Amendment. Two states will ratify this month.  The tally will reach thirty-five, with only one state to go.
• We’ll feature some of the Valiant Women of the Vote and their contributions–women like Carrie Chapman Catt and Lucy Burns.
• We’ll talk about Alice Paul’s strategy of holding the party in power accountable.
• We’ll honor the women who fought for the vote and would not be denied!
