Women right to vote

Women won the right to vote on August 18th, 1920 thanks to congress passing the 19th amendment. The 19th amendment prohibits any United States citizen be denied their right to vote based on their gender. Surprisingly, the amendment was first introduced in 1878. It took 41 years for the congress to send it to the states for ratification. This correlates to Suze and Dewey in the story. Their school would not allow women to join shop or metalworking classes in their school. Women were still fighting for all their rights during the 1940's
