It’s August 26th, 2020 which is the 100 year anniversary of the 19th amendment to the U.S. Constitution being formally adopted allowing women the right to vote. Historians Stacie Taranto and Leandra Zarnow tell us about their new book "Suffrage at 100", which is a really great collection of essays from various writers about women in American politics since 1920. We talk about systemic sexism and racism in the American political system and how there has been progress, but it hasn't been easy. We talk about how women worked with what they had. A lot of this book really helps to understand the struggle for women in politics, how we got here to 2020, and learnings for the future. #suffrage #womenssuffrage #vote #19thamendment #womensrights #suffrageat100 #book #historians #podcast #politics #history #leandrazarnow #stacietaranto #scholars #education #equality #equalityday #women #men #government #votingrights #systemicracism #systemicsexism #sexism #racism #book #newbook #writers
