On this Day: In 1872, 48 years before the #19Amendment,
#SusanBAnthony tried to vote in the presidential election, resulting in her arrest. #Vote#Women’sSuffrage
#OTD 1920, Secretary of State Bainbridge Colby certified the ratification of the 19th Amendment, granting U.S. women the right to vote, changing the face of the American electorate forever.
#USConstitution
On this day, 104 years ago, women were given the right to vote. Today white Christian nationalist want that taken away from women. They believe that the man should be in charge of everything. #19Amendment.
#OTD in #history 1920, the #19Amendment was ratified, guaranteeing women’s suffrage. Harry Burn, a young #Tennessee legislator, held the deciding vote. He stated, “I knew that a mother’s advice is always safest for a boy to follow and my mother wanted me to vote for ratification”
Totally Wrong! Stop lying!!!.
19amendment was created by Alice Paul . She along with millions of women endured great Harassment & some even death for the Right to Vote!
பிழையான தகவல். அமெரிக்காவில் 1919-20ல் தான் இருபாலினருக்குமான வாக்குரிமை 19Amendment Bill மூலமாக சாத்தியமானது, இது கூட முதலில் வெள்ளை பெண்களுக்கு மட்டுமே சாத்தியமானது. Women of Colour Voting rights பல ஆண்டுகள் கழித்தே போராடி பெறப்பட்டது. இதற்கே 1878-லிருந்து போராடியிருக்கிறார்கள்
As we celebrate #WomensEqualityDay and the passage of the #19amendment, we cannot forget the ongoing efforts in this country to strip women of their right to make their own choices about their bodies and futures. I will continue to lead the fight to protect women’s rights.
