NEH Summer Institute:
Women's Suffrage in the Americas
Dates: July 23-August 3, 2018
Location: Carthage College, Kenosha, WI
This NEH-funded program is a public manifestation of Women’s Suffrage in the Americas, a collaborative research project that aims to answer the question, “How did women obtain the vote in the Americas?” Our goal is to generate a theoretical model that will identify both constants and variables across the hemisphere, as well as classify various models to explain how, when, and why suffrage was extended to women in each case.
