Suffrage in Bloom

Like a garden, the cultivation of voting rights for women required a great deal of time and effort and not all American women experienced the full bloom of the ballot in 1920. Constant tending is needed to protect the garden of our democracy from predators and nourish its soil. May we be good gardeners.
