The Right to Fly
History
The inspiration for this ride came from the ratification of the 19th Amendment which granted American women the right to vote. The beginning of the fight for women’s suffrage in the United States grew out of a larger women’s rights movement. That reform effort evolved during the 19th century, initially emphasizing a broad spectrum of goals before focusing solely on securing the franchise for women. After achieving the right to vote, while ending one phase of the women’s rights movement, set the stage for the equally arduous process of securing women a measure of power in local and national political office.
