WILL-TV's American Experience presents the two-part documentary on the efforts by women to get the vote in this county. The Vote airs at 8 pm Monday and Tuesday, July 6 and 7. Patterns magazine notes, "The Vote delves deeply into . . . controversies that divided the nation in the early 20th century---gender, race, state's rights, and political power." The two-part series reminds us that the 19th Amendment was not a "simple turning point" for all women, or for our country, but rather part of a much larger effort for social and political justice that continues today.
