Women’s Suffrage 100th Anniversary

Aug 11, 2020 | News, Teen

In 1848 an amendment to the U.S. Constitution was proposed to congress. It took 72 years between the first demand for women to vote and the passing of the 19th amendment in 1920. In 1971 Congress officially recognized August 26 as Women’s Equality Day. This shows that efforts of women to achieve full equality have not gone unnoticed.
