How can people influence the government?
Using the founding documents of the United States and historical records of the National Archives, visitors will determine how and why women fought for the right to vote. Explore the challenges suffragists faced, and discover why the fight for women’s voting rights and equality has persisted even after the ratification of the 19th Amendment.
Appropriate for students of civics and history of all ages!
