Right or Privilege? Alabama Women and the Vote
After a decades long fight, women gained the right to vote in 1920 with the passage of the 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. In 2020, Vulcan Park and Museum will lead the year-long
commemoration of this significant achievement. This exhibit and related programming will explore the challenges of suffragists in Alabama, the racial issues that shaped the Women’s Suffrage Movement, and the fight for universal suffrage which continued long past 1920
