As the centenary of woman suffrage approaches, the National Women’s History Museum presents a commemorative initiative, “Determined to Rise: Women’s Historical Activism for Equal Rights.”

“Determined to Rise” shapes a broader understanding of the woman suffrage movement throughout the turn of the century, acknowledging not only the achievements resulting in the ratification of the 19th Amendment, but also its profound limitations.

Panelists include:

Dr. Jenny Barker-Devine, Associate Professor of History, Illinois College (Jacksonville, IL)
Dr. Vivia Lawton Fowler, President, Wesleyan College (Macon, GA)
Dr. Daleah Goodwin, Professor of History, Warren Wilson College (Asheville, NC)
Moderator: Dr. Deidra Donmoyer, Professor of Communication, Wesleyan College
