They want to repeal the 19th Amendment. In this episode, Kelsie and Brooke examine the real life of a colonial woman in Maryland who met all the hallmarks of earning the right to vote: she was a landowner, trusted by the Colonial Governor, a talented lawyer who never lost a case, and the head of her household– still they denied her the vote. Anti-suffrage was never about efficiency or meritocracy– it was about controlling women. Let’s back the timeline up for women’s landownership, self advocacy, and efficacy in law and business with the incredible Margaret Brent.
