History-Sode | When Women Won the Ballot Box


Listen Later

Not so long ago, half the population couldn’t vote but brave women changed that forever.
In this inspiring History-Sode, Auntie Jo Jo shares the story of the women’s suffrage movement, from the Seneca Falls Convention in 1848 to the ratification of the 19th Amendment in 1920.
Meet voices like Susan B. Anthony, Sojourner Truth, and Ida B. Wells, who marched, spoke, and dreamed of a day when every voice could be heard.
