Current special exhibit, rightfully hers, american women and the vote. Our partners are here tonight and we thank them for their support. Our special exhibit, rightfully hers, tells the story of the woman struggle for Voting Rights. Women activists had to win allies among men in influential positions. It was men who sat in state legislatures that would ratify or reject the 19 amendment, whose centennial we celebrate.
