The right to vote is a basic tenet of democracy. Women were denied that right in this country until 1920, and it took an amendment to the U.S. Constitution to secure universal enfranchisement. The story of the last campaign to pass that amendment is full of political intrigue, passion for democracy, and courage. And what better way to tell that story than a good old fashioned American musical? This podcast series in both audio and video form, features historical background, interview and musical performance. The music is great, the performance fabulous, the interviews intriguing and informative. Give a listen and see what you think. We would love to hear from you. AEWorks is a not for profit 501 c 3.
