Women in the U.S. gained the right to vote with the passing of the 19th amendment on August 18, 1920. This calendar, published by Syracuse Cultural Workers, celebrates the century of protest and activism to achieve that right on the centennial anniversary. Each image in the calendar is a work of art representing a different stage or event in the fight for suffrage, including picketing the white house, protesting the unveiling of the Statue of Liberty, and the burning of Pennsylvania Hall.
Artists include: Sanya Hyland, Bec Young, Brandon Lazore, Ann Altman, Vanessa Johnson, Eric Shanower & Laura Martin, Meneese Wall, and Ellen Blalock.
