Long problems maybe theyve got heart problems theyre the example your setting is very very shortly and very very poor for them you dont need a mask in your house if we carry on down the route youre going youll just spread paranoia and you will just spread paranoia and from that paranoia will become hatred and people start blaming certain groups for the spreading of it all you have to do its a very simple message wash your hands social distance and be sensible and be courteous and wear your mask in confined spaces not in your house you really are diverted and and if she if people look at you and they start to think well thats silly and then they see.

Greetings and salutations women are more than the sum of our reproductive parts women are a force a powerful and Strategic Group a group that the route history was seen as such a threat to the massage mystic male dominated environment that womens rights were stripped we were treated like 2nd class citizens in public and even in our own homes but the year 2020 with all of its ups and downs gives time to pay homage to and celebrate one of the greatest victories american women have achieved gaining the right to vote 100 years ago on august 18th 1020 the 19th amendment to the Us Constitution was ratified and the largest expansion of the marker in American History came as a result of the 19th amendment this is stuart year of its internal celebration also brings to light other factors related to voter rights the battle for the white house to sit with president Donald TrumpsReelection Campaign explicitly working to not only limit diverse voter turnout but to deconstruct voter platforms from long lines and closing poll stations to Voting Machines not even working in trumps full scale assault all mail in voting the 19th amendment and the fight for voters rights is alive and well on tuesday former Vice President and 2020 democratic president ial nominee joe biden made history by announcing his running mate u. S. Senator Harris Harris is the 1st black Vice President ial candidate in u. S. History but even though harris is more than qualified for the role shes facing backlash the kind that is typically only reserved for women women for whom ambition is seen as a bad word and strength is seen as unladylike harris is also taking fire for her race shes even. Slut shamed with fox news host Tucker Carlson implying that harris slept her way to the top and that her success is largely dependent on the men shes dated a sneer that isnt new fox news darling and favorite conservative voice tom miller in made the same comments a year ago but apologized after her colleagues called her out these types of attacks on women have historically kept many from running for office in the 1st place because females are often hill to a very different standard than men. At the intersection of womens rights and a world all too eager to file it its time we start watching the hawks. If you want to build whats going on a city the streets you want to. Undersell youd like to see the top prizes joyce state and City Employees will slice mass graves sit desolate systemic deception is still a show which is now with some pretty tough job as. A welcome one to watching the hawks i am tired and im a music rock and joining us now are on a lemon executive director of the womens suffrage some time your commission and patricia work the executive director and c. E. O. Of turning Point Suffragist Memorial Association thank you both for coming on its an author have a new. Beginning here. In the 19th amendment is a very important part of American History and womens right to vote is particularly vital with women being the largest demographic in america something we should all be excited and celebrating but how did we get here and whats the significance of the 19th amendment centennial in 2020 when we know that this might be one of the most consequential elections of our time. That you want to take that when. Well. I believe that this is history in the making there have been other milestones in the Suffrage Movement to 50 years to 75 year history but this here is just. The 100 here anniversary people are taking notice at our organization we like to say that the Separation Movement is the best kept secret in American History by doing presentations all over the country and i speak just sawzall individuals at all ages and most of them never heard anything about the movement so this. Here being the 100th anniversary is particularly poignant because i guess 100 years just means more then any other major milestone and so the whole movement is getting a lot 7 of recognition. And history is there is a lot of the peeling back of an onion so to speak of information that has not been widespread in its way past time so its very exciting. On your the some projects are historically showcased throughout history you know as white women what i want to ask you if you can what was the role of black women Voting Rights in the history of this movement and why is it consistently stated that the 19th amendment ensured all women Voting Rights access one of fact you know black women face significant barriers to vote and even with the passage of the one to the moment how has that been changed over the years and and how as a gotten better. Thats a big question so. You know the history of the 1000 amendment its a long history and a complicated history and particularly when it comes to regulations so the Suffrage Movement had deep ties to the Abolition Movement the original suffragettes were women who were already motivated they were already activated and they were fighting against slavery in the United States and thats really where the Suffrage Movement again but then there is a big rift in the at the start of the movement over the 14th and 15th amendments and womens exclusion from those amendments and thats really where the problems began and so you have some white stuff or just who work very hard to secure the right to vote for all women and you have other white stuff or just who dont do that at all and who in fact gave in very exclusionary discriminatory. And prejudiced behavior to try to secure the bill for themselves and that will ripped out the Suffrage Movement and then with the passage of the 19th amendment in 1020. 00 this incredible. Just very proud moment for one and unfortunately what in the pap and. Women of color are very much excluded from the way that the 1000 amendment is a been put into place throughout the country and so native american women because citizenship was denied to native women and till 1924 native american women couldnt vote in the United States and then you had chinese american women same story citizenship was denied to chinese american women not able to vote until much later black women of course face a particularly unique set of. Prejudices and an access to the ballot because of jim crow laws in the south the same laws that were already impacting men in the south black men once the 90 minute passes that doesnt protect black women and so those black women are then facing the same set of exclusionary prejudiced and discriminatory obstacles to the ballot so what we like to thing is that the 1000 amendment is an incredibly important chapter in with taurine american democracy but its not the only chapter and for women of color the story continue barking on linked in ive been to lay that out perfectly i think to really summed up what that struggle has been and how important now its you know important we have. Ever tricia weve made progress but we also have to look at the fact that some of that progress has been hampered by a lot of things that measure that progress with the way to where we currently are women make up only 23. 7 percent of congress only 7. 4 percent of legislators are women. This november 32000 trains people could be turned away at polls because of the lack of an id to vote what does all of this mean for the legacy of the 19th amendment. Unfortunately Voter Suppression is alive and well here we see it state by state we d saw it happening it happening in georgia when stacy abrams was running running for governor i mean its it is there it is just one of those things that we have to say well i mean its very very unfortunate i would like to think that what im seeing is women just dont give up i agree with everything that ana said earlier about what happened in so far as africanamerican women during the Suffrage Movement and that racism there permeated that entire movement but they never gave up they formed separate organizations and they never gave up they just kept working and working in working. In the early part of the 20th century teenager africanamerican sororities were 4 of the Alpha Kappa Alpha and the Delta Sigma Theta sorority and 100 years later at least 2. Africanamerican sorority still of what is a major things that they deal with a year after here are Voting Rights and so even though there has been this suppression we just have to keep working at it and fighting to try to over take it and i think that there one of the things that has been that has been remarkable is seeing that finally women have recognized that they are capable of running for office Winning Office and doing a wonderful job being wonderful leaders and i think its prisms just to stix they are if you ask a man if he wants to run for office will say ok sure no problem but if you ask the women one until say well i dont know if im qualified i have to think about this a while and i you know ill get back to you on that and they dont just jump into it but i. Think that women are being encouraged i think youll see across the country states now have organizations to help train women on how to run for office i know we have that in the state of virginia where i live and im really happy to see it because its my personal opinion that even if we had totally equal number gender wise of elected officials why its important is because even though the end result might be the same women have a different perspective on things than men do and so its important to have the full perspective of the issue before you vote on it and once again we may get to the same conclusive and out of that an issue that we need to have the perspective of both genders the because we dont think alike i have a wonderful husband and live free and a lot but we dont get to that end result the same way very frequently i have to say but realistically i think if we had far more Women Leaders represented in this country we would not be in the dire straits that we are in to bay in many different areas of this country i want to ask you both of you to go 1st but how will the female vote impact the 2020 election i mean there was a lot of focus on the president ial but you also of the son of your bahamas you have other part of races locally that are up for grabs that well on a hot even the female vote is going to play this year. Well not what i would say is not that. Women are amazing bright and mean show and used that throughout the Stanford Movement and standing up and you see women chilling out and i think thats a suffragettes would have wanted to see especially 100 years after the ratification of the 1900 amendments it doesnt matter what side of the aisle youre on what matters is that you engage in your community that you care about your community and that you work to make this country better. And one of the ways that we can do that is i engage in our democracy and i think its just a beautiful thing to be in this 100. 00 here and to be able to come together as a country i hope in this moment and rally together as americans and stand for something and meaning that something thats here is its new to this whole story of what it means to be american and of what it means to work towards a more Perfect Union right because thats what the Suffrage Movement represents it represents. Unequivocal power that women have to keep pushing forward and seem to work for Something Better and so i think that is worth celebrating this year i could not agree with you more and i want to thank you both so much for the good work that youre doing in keeping the Movement Alive and educating people around the country on the importance of the 19th amendment and what all of those women of all colors did in order to get equality and keeping that fight going to this day thank you so much for joining us once again and elaine when the executive director the women suffragists Centennial Commission and patricia the executive director and c.
