Historic anniversary
Suzanne Crouch
For me, a highlight of 2020 has been chairing the Indiana Women’s Suffrage Centennial Commission.
The commission was created to commemorate and celebrate the 100th anniversary of Indiana’s ratification of the 19th Amendment, which guaranteed that the right to vote could not be denied on the basis of gender. By preserving the collective work incredible Hoosier women and men made throughout this movement, we are inspiring future generations.
As a commission, we wanted to ensure this important piece of history will not be forgotten.
The suffrage movement demonstrated that ordinary people, when working together, can make an extraordinary impact. The legacy of women leading the way in Indiana is not a new phenomenon; it is a part of the very fabric of who Hoosiers are.
