In 1965, The Voting Rights Act was signed into law, outlawing discriminatory voting practices and ensuring that women of color were also given the right to vote. This year, as the 2020 election approaches, we celebrate the indomitable spirit of the suffragettes and honor the women who fought for our rights by urging everyone to vote. Join us! click here
