It places the story within broader political, economic, and intellectual restrictions placed on women by social conventions and law. Drawing on artifacts and historical voices, it highlights the suffrage movement’s perseverance, the milestone ratification of the Nineteenth Amendment in 1920, and how the journey toward full equality continued beyond voting rights.
