This is Women’s Suffrage Day. In 1850, on this date, the first call for women’s rights occurred. In 1915, women marched on Fifth Avenue on this very same date for equal rights. Finally, in 1920, women gained the right to vote in federal elections with the approval of the 19th Amendment to the Constitution.

RIP Soupy!
oops I see you are already on top of that. Hey I work late. give me a break…Oh and if anyone needs any king salmon.
And to think that Republican men and women think that women should not have the right to vote.
From the League of Women Voters, the least partisan organization has this to say….
Ann Coulter’s reason for women not voting was that Republicans would win all the elections. Then there are the Talibangelicals who don’t think women should have any rights.
I wonder if there have been any studies done on the effect of the women’s vote in the period during and after the Depression.
Mary Wilson, I thought she was great in Heart. Barracuda! Oh yes.
Bill Moyers has the investigator of war crimes by Israel in Gaza. He is a South African Jew, admits to being a Zionist, yet he exposed numerous war crimes committed by Israel against the civilians in Gaza. A very condemning report.
Sorry, I got distracted by a shiny thing.
