Celebrating a 70-year struggle to vote

June 4, 2019 by Georgia Mullen Leave a Comment

It took seven decades of steady, often brutal, campaigning to get United States women the right to vote. The activism began in 1848 when Elizabeth Cady Stanton and friends shocked the local patriarchy by getting together in a church to tell their menfolk what they expected out of life.

Rebecca Edwards, who began a stint as a Dutchess County, New York legislator this year, must have read A Shocking & Unnatural Incident.

Regardless of possible bias, A Shocking & Unnatural Incident is engaging first because it is well written, second because it has an interesting plot, third because it has a surprise (to me) ending, and fourth because […]

Today is not simply another Women’s Equality Day. Aug. 26, 2010 marks the 90th anniversary of the 19th Amendment giving women the right to full citizenship, that is the privilege and responsibility to vote. I looked up the text of the 19th Amendment and found it to be two simple sentences of merely 39 words: […]
