Unfinished Fights, Unsung Heroes: Centering Women of Color in the Voting Rights Movement

On the 100th anniversary of the ratification of the 19th Amendment, the United State of Women and Girls Inc., are joining forces to bring you, "Unfinished Fights, Unsung Heroes: Centering Women of Color in the Voting Rights Movement". This powerful discussion, presented in partnership with the Gender Equity Voting Collaborative, will bring together activists and historians to explore the complicated history of the 19th Amendment and the lessons it teaches us about voting rights today. Through an intergenerational lens, our panelists will examine the historic disenfranchisement of Black and Brown communities, highlight the need to protect and expand voting rights for marginalized communities, and celebrate the women of color who have fought for the last century to make the promise of the 19th Amendment a reality for ALL women. Attendees will leave this conversation inspired to continue the fight and equipped with the tools they need to have crucial conversations about voting rights and the intersection of gender and race this election season.
