Meet Ida Wells-Barnett & Dress Up for Suffrage

This month we celebrate 50 years since Dr. Martin Luther King led the March on Washington in pursuit of civil rights for African-Americans.

This year, the League of Women Voters celebrates the 100th anniversary of a much less-well-known event: the Woman's Suffrage March.  On March  3, 1913, thousands of women gathered on the streets of Washington DC to bring public attention to their own civil rights issue: the right to vote.
