In celebration of Women’s History Month, join us for "Temperance and Woman Suffrage" with the Sewall-Belmont House and Museum.
Tuesday, March 31, at 7 p.m. National Archives Building Livestream: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HHwHZAufuYk
The temperance and woman suffrage movements of the late 19th and early 20th centuries created opportunities for women to organize for social, economic, and political change.
Page Harrington, executive director of the Sewall-Belmont House & Museum, leads a discussion on how these reform movements provide a fascinating study of the individuals who participated in both movements, the organizations they created, and women as the driving force behind significant change in the United States.
Lori Osborne, archivist and president of the Frances Willard Historical Association; Dr. Rosalyn Terborg-Penn, University Professor Emerita, Morgan State University; and Kristina Myers, program director at the Alice Paul Institute, will also participate.
