Women's Suffrage at 100
Posted on
“ The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex. ”
“ Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation. ”
One hundred years after ratification of the 19th amendment a truer, richer, more nuanced, just and diverse understanding of the history of women’s suffrage begins to light the way forward. New obstacles emerging along the path to true and lasting enfranchisement for all are testimony to the power of the people who vote.
Lighting our way, here, is the Elizabeth Sackler Center for Feminist Art. We’d like to take this moment to celebrate some of the recent ground-breaking exhibitions from the ESFCA’s 4th floor galleries. These exhibitions, among others, have been a source of inspiration and enlightenment for our efforts to find and develop products that illuminate and educate, appeal to everyone, are accessible to everyone and made by a diverse, community of collaborators and makers that reflects everyone.
