Hyenas in Petticoats–How Women Struggled Against Every Dirty Trick in the Books to Win the Vote! with Jana Bommersbach

November 14, 2020 @ 10:30 am - 12:00 pm

FREE

As we celebrate the 100th birthday of the 19th Amendment in 2020, it’s time to look back at the enormous effort it took for women to be granted full citizenship and the vote. History has downplayed suffrage, as if it were just a footnote in American history, when in fact, it was the nation’s largest civil rights movement. Western women got the vote long before their Eastern sisters, but don’t dare tell an Arizona suffragette that she had it easy. Arizona had its own dirty tricks. Jana exposes it all—the heroines, the heroes and the haters. REGISTER HERE.
