One hundred years ago – on March 3, 1913 – thousands marched in support of giving women the right to vote, and turned the tides of history. Green Connections has a special link to the suffrage movement: GCR host Joan Michelson’s great-great aunt Miriam Michelson was a reporter covering the suffrage movement and one of the foremost interviewers of the movement’s leader, Susan B. Anthony.
The National Press Club honored the centennial of this march, as well as International Women’s Day and Women’s History Month, with a special event. Listen to Joan Wages, CEO of the National Women’s History Museum talk to GCR host Joan Michelson from the National Press Club.
