Ask a Suffragist: Stories and Wisdom from Fighters Who Won (and Lost) the Right to Vote

By April Young Bennett

Fighters Who Won (and Lost) the Right to Vote covers the 19th Amendment victory and beyond, when women barred from voting by racial discrimination fought for their rights. After repeated victories for women in the West and ultimately the passage of a constitutional amendment extending votes for women nationwide, indigenous women, still barred from voting, fought for the Indian Citizenship Act. Meanwhile, discriminatory voting laws and violence continued to disfranchise many women of color.
