About the Exhibit

The "Suffrage Outside!" exhibit is part of the听听campaign, a significant, multi-year initiative recognizing the stories and protecting the historic places that showcase the vision, courage, and leadership of the generations of women who contributed to American history and culture.听

鈥淭hrough visual storytelling," says Elizabeth Karcher, "this exhibit takes history outside our museum and showcases how women鈥檚 work outside the home, the work and leadership of Black women pushed outside the 鈥榤ainstream鈥� middle-class white women鈥檚 movement, protesting outside the White House, public protests outside in the streets, mobilization for war outside the United States as well as alliances with activists outside the United States, collectively propelled the American woman鈥檚 suffrage campaign to victory in 1920.鈥�
