When they marched for the women's right to vote 100 years ago, they were imprisoned, put into strait-jackets and force fed until they vomited blood. They fought for your right to own property, to have access to birth control and your right to an education. This video is fun and clever and hits on some hard truths. And it makes you ask yourself...what I am willing to do today to fight back and protect our rights as women and citizens?
Edited by me to add that I literally cried watching this. There are so many things we take for granted as women these days. I think we've forgotten that generations ago, women suffered and bled to make sure that we, their descendants, had the same rights as men. This is especially poignant now, when we face more choices being made for us, without our input, in a so-called bid for "morality". That same argument was used to keep us out of the polls. Will we continue their fight?
