but i sure know where i've been

The Women's Rights Movement began in the USA in 1848.
That date is not a typographical error.
It truly was more than 170 years ago, or roughly eight generations ago.
Women were not granted the right to vote in American elections until 1920.
That means it took activism for 68 years - a little over three generations - to bring about the Nineteenth Amendment in 1920 to the United States Constitution.


Civil War 1861-1865

Thirteenth Amendment abolished slavery in 1865

Fifteenth Amendment blacks to vote in 1870



"On The Basis Of Sex"



"93Queen"
