In 1872, fifteen women dared to vote! It was a time when women were not allowed to vote in the United States, but these women decided to challenge that rule. They walked into a general store in Rochester, New York, and voted for the President of the United States, not knowing if they would be arrested, or even sent to jail! Mama Votes! is told through the eyes of a young girl who watches her mother join that brave group of women. Led by the famous suffragette Susan B. Anthony, they shock the city of Rochester and the nation by insisting that they, as U.S. citizens, have the same right to vote as men do. In addition to the story, this book includes a two-act play about the event that can be performed in places like schools, youth groups, or even read aloud at the library or at home. Through the book and play, you will learn what happened as a result of this daring action taken by brave women who risked everything to win the right to vote. It would take many more years, but their efforts, and those of other dedicated and courageous women, would lead to the passage of the Nineteenth Amendment to the Constitution, exactly 100 years ago in 1920, that finally gave women the right to vote.
