About this listen
Join D.C. Affairs Community Co-Chair Angela Parsons and Kathryn Ray, librarian, historian, and past president of the League of Women Voters of the District of Columbia, as they discuss the early 20th century leadup to the passage of the 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which abolished voting discrimination on the basis of sex. The conversation highlights luminaries of the American Womens’ suffrage movement, including Alice Paul, Carrie Chapman Catt, Ida B. Wells, and others, and details the historic 1913 March on Washington on the eve of President Woodrow Wilson’s inauguration.
The D.C. Affairs Community is proud to present this podcast in celebration of Womens’ History Month, and a reminder that the history of D.C. is the history of our Nation.
