America's Heroines - From Revolution to Evolution: How Suffragettes Changed America
The Women's Rights Movement has had an enormous impact on all of our lives - women, men and children alike. It has been a long hard haul for over 150 years to bring half of the population closer to equal rights and equal pay, and - No, we're not done yet!
This is a 45- 60 minute creative arts multi-media presentation, using archival media, personal stories, documentary film clips, and performance re-enacting to tell the important and meaningful story of how women won the vote.
