Aug 26, 1920 Women Won The Right To Vote

Thank you to Alegre's Corner for this wonderful commemoration of the horror and joy of the First Struggle-beatings -arrests - and hunger strikes in prisons leading to forced feedings which were nothing less than torture which equals water boarding. They were called racists too. Nothing much has changed.

I learned this beautiful working women's textile strike song at a Grinell women's conference in 1970's. It was sung at the Lawrence, Mass 1912 Mill strike led by women who sang this as they marched. My webmaster made it into a beautiful page with pictures of my life here.
