IF WOMEN WANT RIGHTS MORE THAN THEY GOT, WHY DON’T THEY JUST TAKE THEM, AND NOT BE TALKING ABOUT IT.” *.Sojourner Truth, excerpted from **UNRULY WOMEN...AND WHY WE NEED THEM* A VIRTUAL FUNDRAISER FOR *WOMEN IN HISTORY OHIO* MAY 26TH AND 7PM. *PURCHASE TICKET <https://www.eventbrite.com/e/unruly-womenand-why-we-need-them-tickets-15384…> * *NOTE: Tickets purchased on the day of the performance have been known to be problematic.Early purchase is strongly encouraged. * *UNRULY WOMEN…AND WHY WE NEED THEM *brings together SOJOURNER TRUTH, SUSAN B.ANTHONY, & ELIZABETH CADY STANTON... three passionate pioneers (often considered “dangerous” and “scandalous” by those opposed to female suffrage and equal rights) and allows them to share their unvarnished stories... their toughest challenges and biggest triumphs, their heartbreaks, hopes, and humor, the regrets, ridicule, and resilience. For all their efforts, none of these women would live to see the passage of the 19th Amendment, but their timely conversation is a poignant reminder that there’s still work to be done.
