Women's Suffrage Part II: Remastered

The women's suffrage movement is often boiled down to a simplistic tale of courageous women gathering in Seneca Falls in 1848 to demand the right to vote, which was ultimately secured for all women in 1920. However, the truth is far more intricate and convoluted. While the Seneca Falls convention was indeed a watershed moment, women had been voting in certain states long before 1920. Additionally, many Black women were still disenfranchised even after the passage of the Nineteenth Amendment, with some not truly gaining the right to vote until the passage of the Voting Rights Act in 1965.
