Today in Peace and Justice history on August 26, 1920



The 19th Amendment, guaranteeing women the right to vote, officially became part of the U.S. Constitution: “The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex.” 
This day has been known since 1971 as Women’s Equality Day. http://bit.ly/17Yl6Rs
