Answer 1

Answer:

August 18, 2020 marks 100 years since the ratification of the 19th Amendment to the United States Constitution granting women the right to vote.

However, obstacles like poll taxes, literacy tests and other discriminatory state voting laws would keep Black women (and men) disenfranchised for a further 45 years, until the Voting Rights Act was signed into law on August 6, 1965.

The battle for women's suffrage had begun much earlier, when, in 1848, participants at the first women's rights convention at Seneca Falls in New York narrowly passed a resolution that women should seek the right to vote.
