Like with most historical fiction, I yearn to read and learn more, and in this case, it’s about Ida B. The march happens on March 3, 1913, but not without resistance from men who block the parade and assault the women.
Wells-Barnett, who is seeking the right to vote for ALL women, including women of color.
Joining Alice are Maud Malone, an advocate for both women and worker’s rights, and Ida B. I’m the book, she’s only twenty-five, and she’s already been imprisoned for her steadfast commitment to suffrage.Īt this point in history, nine states have granted women the right to vote, but the suffragists are seeking a constitutional amendment. What’s interesting about this one is even though it’s mostly set in the US, Alice, the main character is from New Jersey and spent several years in Great Britain battling for suffrage there before returning to the US to continue here.
