Dr Lori Ginzberg on Women’s Suffrage

Causes and Consequences of Women’s Suffrage

Historian and Professor Lori Ginzberg of Pennsylvania State University will lead us from the antebellum origins of the women’s rights movements through the passage of the Nineteenth Amendment and beyond. Author of Elizabeth Cady Stanton: An American Life, Dr Ginzberg will help us understand the issues, personalities and priorities in the drive for suffrage.

She will also examine the barriers and conflicting strategies which confronted the many passionate warriors for women’s rights. As we untangle this history, the political challenges of today will unfold.

This event is being organized by the Democrats Abroad Global Women’s Caucus as part of the Women’s History Month Talks.
