Synopsis

The United States has more women's suffrage memorials than ever before, and yet suffragists are still denigrated. In this deeply personal account, women's history advocate Joanne Callahan describes the put-downs of suffragists in the media and even in spaces designed to honor these activists. In her analysis, Callahan provides strong evidence of a double standard of history. She delves into Susan Faludi's theory of matricide, where feminists downgrade the accomplishments of their foremothers. Nevertheless, she gives uplifting examples of women's history advocates who fought back. She also provides numerous suggestions on how we can "ripen the times" and ensure that suffragists take their rightful place in history.
