Today day marks 200 years since the 19th amendment was officially certified by the United States Secretary of State and added to the Constitution. For over 200 years, women fought to achieve the same rights as men-rights as simple as the ability to own property, opportunities for jobs and education, and, of course, voting. Even after the 19th amendment was passed, it still took over 40 years for Black women to finally win their right to vote. As a majority female organization, FLOC is all about celebrating this day, and the achievements of all women throughout history. We would not be here today enjoying the same rights without them. And yet, there is still so far to go. Keep reading to find ways you can support and celebrate women today!<\/p>\n
