Sheila Kitzinger (The Lancet) Cassidy is a dynamic journalist: her book is written at a cracking pace, and makes an exciting read. She knows exactly when to provide anecdotes that intrigue along with statistics…Engaging.

The amazing Barbara Lee, looking out on Faneuil Hall packed with women to kick off the Massachusetts suffrage centennial. Did you know: Katherine Morey of Brookline was one of the first suffragists arrested outside the White House demanding the vote? Suffragists who protested on Boston Common against Woodrow Wilson (he opposed woman suffrage) were thrown in Charles Street Jail? And the Massachusetts Legislature (comprised only of men) was the eighth of 36 states to ratify the 19th Amendment #onthisday 100 years ago? The future is about women voting and holding office. #boswomenvote #mawomenvote #suffrage #suffrage100MA #vote #alicepaul #IdaBWells #sheroes #feminist #voter #votesforwomen. #MrPresidentHowLongMustWeWait @suffrage100ma @bostonwomen @shirley02186 @maura_healey @massltgov @kayfredie @cccrawford016 @massvote @historyatplay @bostonchildrenschorus @campbelldistrict4 @mayorkimdriscoll @mayor_spicer (the first female mayor of Framingham and the great granddaughter of slaves!)
