Join us on Sunday, February 9th at 3:00 pm as we welcome Ellen DuBois to the store to discuss and sign Suffrage: Women’s Long Battle for the Vote!
DuBois begins in the pre-Civil War years with foremothers Lucretia Mott, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Susan B. Anthony, and Sojourner Truth as she explores the links between the suffrage movement and the abolition of slavery. She introduces new champions Carrie Chapman Catt and Alice Paul, who brought the fight into the 20th century, and she shows how African American women, led by Ida B. Wells-Barnett, demanded voting rights even as white suffragists ignored them. And after decades of persevering through disappointments and defeats, DuBois explains how suffragists forged a strategy to win voting rights in crucial battleground states — culminating in the last, most difficult ratification in Tennessee.
Suffrage: Women’s Long Battle for the Vote is sure to become the authoritative account of one of the great episodes in the history of American democracy. And the suffrage movement’s legacy only continues to grow — as women’s votes are solicited by political parties, as more women candidates enter the political arena, and as women voice their opinions about political issues that matter to them.

The 19th Amendment at 100: From the Vote to Gender Equality
2019-09-20 08:00 - 17:00 | CA
The University of Akron School of Law (Brennan Courtroom 180)
The focus of the 2019 conference is the 100th anniversary of the 19th Amendment.
Soon after its passage in June 1919, and its ratification by the states in August 1920, the voting amendment was interpreted as a broad command for gender equality. However, that trend was quickly reversed, narrowing the impact and intent of the amendment and its 72 years of advocacy.
This conference explores the original goal of the amendment of systemic equality for women. It brings together scholars from law, history, political science, and women’s studies to engage in a day of intensive scholarly discussion about the implications of the amendment, and its social, legal, and political context.
