Description

Celebrate Women's Equality Day. This National day commemorates ratification of the 19th Amendment, giving US women full voting rights. One Woman, One Vote, the movie, summarizes the 72-year struggle to achieve state and US voting rights. "How could America call itself the world's greatest democracy, but continue to deny the right to vote to more than half of its citizens? This program documents the struggle which culminated in the passing of the 19th Amendment in the U.S. Senate by one vote. Witness them 70-year struggle for women's suffrage. Discover why the crusaders faced entrenched opposition from men and women who feared the women's vote would ignite a social revolution." Narrated by Susan Sarandon​​
