SUMMARY:Black Suffragists - the Untold Story (virtual)
DESCRIPTION:We invite you to attend our FREE online presentation. \n\n\n\nThe Lawrence County Historical Society is combining February’s Black History Month and March’s Women’s History Month in this exclusive online program. \n\n\n\nOn March 10 at 7 P.M.\, Jean Speight\, a local historian\, will share the history of some of the Black women who played important roles in the suffragist movement whose names are not mentioned in history books. The black suffragists had to fight both racism and sexism during the suffragist movement. The movement tried to exclude Black suffragists so they could garner the support of southern white women\, but they showed up anyway. \n\n\n\nPRESENTER: Jean Speight. Mrs. Speight retired from the New Castle Area School District after 31 years. She previously taught in Tennessee and Philadelphia before coming to New Castle.  \n\n\n\nYou can read an article about the work Speight is doing to document and preserve Black History in New Castle titled: Neighborhood Stories: New Castle’s Newfound African American History by Bette McDevitt. From Western Pennsylvania History\, Vol 93 No 3\, Fall 2010 [visit https://journals.psu.edu/wph/article/view/58756] \n\n\n\nHer previous presentations at the Lawrence County Historical Society have received high praise. \n\n\n\nThe program can be viewed live: \n\n\n\n\non Facebook at www.facebook.com/lawrencechs\n\n\n\non Zoom at https://us02web.zoom.us/j/6833596633\n\n\n\n\nMeeting ID:683 359 6633 \n\n\n\nOne tap mobile \n\n\n\n+1-646-558-8656\,\,6833596633# US (New York) \n\n\n\n+1-301-715-8592\,\,6833596633# US (Washington DC) \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \nDoes this sound interesting?
