Celebrate the 100th Anniversary of the 19th Amendment and Women's Right to Vote

Proceeds to benefit the Women on Force Multiplier’s House and Senate Slates

• Manisha Sinha  holds the Shirley A. Draper Chair in American History at the University of Connecticut. She is a leading authority on the history of slavery and abolition, the Civil War and Reconstruction;

• Susan Ware is a pioneer in the field of women’s history, a leading feminist biographer and author of Why They Marched
