The 19th Amendment will be on display from March 1 to March 8 at the National Archives Building in honor of the 100th anniversary of the 1913 woman’s suffrage parade in Washington, DC.
Between 1878, when the amendment was first introduced in Congress, and 1920, when it was ratified, champions of voting rights for women worked tirelessly. Read their full story of their struggles on today’s Pieces of History blog post: http://go.usa.gov/2CrY
We will also be screening the 2004 film “Iron-Jawed Angels” at noon on March 2.
