A Right We Shouldn't Have to Fight For – SUSO E2 Voting Part 4

bcvoices.org In Then and Now, multiple generations of American women share how voting rights laws have affected their lives. Women born after 1920 were the first generation to grow up with their right to vote guaranteed by the 19th amendment; yet many were disenfranchised by local reality or immigration laws. Their daughters, women of the 1960s cohort, were able to vote freely without facing poll taxes or literacy tests. Their granddaughters could vote in the historic 2020 election for the first female and biracial Vice President. Their great-granddaughters could eagerly anticipate reaching voting age. Now, however, women of all ages are once again raising the alarm against new voter suppression laws in many states.
