| Abstract | This year marks the 100th anniversary of the passage of the Nineteenth Amendment, which gave women the right to vote. The fight was a protracted one, lasting over 70 years, and it did not result in equity for diverse women. Voting and citizenship came to women of color differently depending on region, class, race, and ethnicity. For example, American Indian women were not U.S. citizens, so they could not vote. Also, African American women in the South faced many hurdles in casting ballots, from being forced to take tests to facing the threat of bodily harm. Given that twenty-first century Americans are steeped in a visual culture, it is well worth looking back a century ago to a time when suffragists decided to use images to shape the public's perception of them in an effort to achieve their goals. (As Provided). |
