There’s a lot of dirt when we start looking into the history of women and voting in the United States. Before we look at the problems with the pro-women’s suffrage community and how they excluded minority groups, we’re going back to the women who were against getting the vote even for themselves. Embedded in their logic are deep connections to whiteness and the exclusion of anyone or anything that was outside the God-ordained image, in their view, of (white) womanhood. We’re starting part 1 with a deep dive into anti-suffrage ideology and we’ll continue next time by wrapping up that ideology and talk about some of the individual women involved in anti-suffrage.
