À propos de ce contenu audio
In The Women's Suffrage Movement, Dr. Rabaka lifts up the intertwined histories of women's rights, abolitionism, racial justice, and democratic reform. This episode serves as a companion to Episode 23, The Abolitionist Movement, deepening our understanding of how these movements shaped one another.
The episode examines the evolution of suffrage organizing, the contributions of Black women's clubs, the roles of Indigenous, Latina, and Asian American women, and the limits of the Nineteenth Amendment, which granted women the right to vote while leaving many women of color disenfranchised for another half century.
As Dr. Rabaka reflects:
"To understand the Women's Suffrage Movement is to understand that the struggle for voting rights has always been a struggle over who counts as fully human in our democracy."
This episode contextualizes the victories, challenges, and unfinished work of women's activism, reminding us why this history matters now more than ever.
