19th Amendment Voting

I am more than a wee bit overwhelmed right now, and really will be for the foreseeable future as I enter the semester from hell. It’s pretty bad when colleagues from other departments who only have a sense of about half of your obligations for a semester come up to you and laughingly ask if “you are ready for this semester.” The answer is, of course, that I have no choice. Some of the reasons for this will soon become public as I’ve been organizing a big speaker series that you New Englanders will be interested in, but in any case, blogging will likely be a bit light for the coming weeks, outside of scheduled labor history posts. But I can always put up an interesting link and so I will leave this here for your perusal and comment.

Today marks the anniversary of the 19th amendment. It's final vote in the US House had some clear regional splits. pic.twitter.com/CVygwRZuxB
