19th Amendment: Then and Now

May 11, 2019

The National Archives is launching a new exhibit, “Rightfully Hers,” to spotlight a century of political struggle by suffragists, including Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton. The 19th Amendment was ratified in 1920, but what many don’t know is that it didn’t give all women the right to vote. Soledad is joined by three historians – Ann Gordon, Marcia Chatelain, and Maggie Blackhawk – for a discussion about the 19th Amendment.
