Women’s Suffrage Education


The right of women to vote varies across the globe. Women in the USA protested for a century to finally receive the vote in 1920. When our rights are questioned on a regular basis, we need reminders of what we have accomplished and what we deserve to keep. “Bad Romance: Women’s Suffrage is a parody music video paying homage to Alice Paul and the generations of brave women who joined together in the fight to pass the 19th Amendment.” © Soomo Publishing 2012.
