At first closely intertwined, the abolition and suffrage movements were called to make a compromise that became a lasting wedge.

One hundred years after the passage of the 19th Amendment, The Vote tells the dramatic culmination story of the hard-fought campaign waged by American women for the right to vote - a transformative cultural and political movement that resulted in the largest expansion of voting rights in U.S. history.
In its final decade, from 1909 to 1920, movement leaders wrestled with contentious questions about the most effective methods for affecting social change. They debated the use of militant, even violent tactics, as well as hunger strikes and relentless public protests. The battle for the vote also upended previously accepted ideas about the proper role of women in American society and challenged the definitions of citizenship and democracy.
Exploring how and why millions of 20th-century Americans mobilized for - and against - women’s suffrage, The Vote brings to life the unsung leaders of the movement and the deep controversies over gender roles and race that divided Americans then - and continue to dominate political discourse today.

Very sad how these two very well-meaning and important causes were pitted against one another.

Women did not want to vote because they believed that Rights come with attendant responsibilities. When they get drafted into war they should be allowed to decide what government we have but not before then.

Maybe you can time travel and be a woman at that time with no rights ( your value only being a baby maker) and see how you like it? In my understanding of history male leaders historically create more wars than women leaders. Women uphold peace treaties more than our male counterparts, women leaders are often called into distressed companies to help them be more profitable, women leaders in Canada and Finland during covid were praised for their collaborative efforts. We know by now countries and organizations do better when there is reflective leadership. We need good men and women in leadership and voting.

Women always talk about having the rights of men, but not the responsibilities. Not long after Seneca Falls came the Civil War. Incredible 800,000 young men were killed in that war. Hundreds of thousands more were wounded and suffered loss of limbs. Did women demand a right to fight and die in the war? Fast forward to the last war in which men were compelled to fight in: Vietnam. Over 58,000 men died in that war, versus six women. Men went to great extremes to avoid that jungle. They escaped to Canada, or intentionally gave themselves a gunshot wound. By the end of our participation, Vietnam had descended into madness, with young American soldiers intentionally killing poor women and children in villages. By murdering their own officers. What "rights" would women have given up avoiding being sent to the jungles of Vietnam?

Equal doesn’t mean the same. Men born at birth can’t have babies. Most good women are natural born visionaries and collaborators causing us to influence less war and more peace although we often forget to credit ourselves for these things. In my experience women don’t want to dominate men we make up 51% of the population and in the US over half of the workforce. However unconscious bias and ignorance around different styles of leadership still cause us to address the broken rung and the glass ceiling with grace. Women do better and make more money when we have an inner circle of allies who also believe in our value.
