‘This Is Not a Boring History of Nagging Spinsters’ Women’s suffrage is the story of a political revolution — with all sorts of parallels to today.

This New York Times article is an honest conversation about not only the intent, realities, and outcomes of the suffrage movement ... but also the people involved.  

 With guidance, this article would make a profound and provocative start to a history and/or language arts lesson.
