Support. Our special exhibit, rightfully hers, tells the story of the woman struggle for Voting Rights. Women activists had to win allies among men in influential positions. It was men who sat in state legislatures that would ratify or reject the 19 amendment, whose centennial we celebrate. When rightfully hers opened, guests were offered a yellow rose pin when they entered. That was won by members of the mens league for womens suffrage.
