On this week’s episode of Wednesday's Women, join Kaitlyn and Taylor for a candid conversation about Alice Paul. Paul was an active suffragette and is one of the first people to propose an equal rights amendment amendment be added to the constitution. In 1912, Paul and friends organized a women's march to coincide with Woodrow Wilson's inauguration. When that event commenced the following March, Paul and her suffragists were so prominent that male onlookers insulted and assaulted the women marchers as the police looked on. We will also discuss the mistreatment Paul endured while imprisoned and how it likely led to Wilson endorsing Women’s Suffrage!
