At Suffrage Centennial, "Every Woman Vote" Focuses on Present and Future

Every Woman Vote

Later this year, Tennessee will celebrate its role in helping women secure the right to vote. Tennessee was the key state to approve the Nineteenth Amendment, in August 1920.

While many of the observances look back, one local project is exploring what voting means for women today. Media producers Amy Gibson and Bob Deck created the effort, called “Every Woman Vote.”

Gibson recently spoke with WUOT’s Brandon Hollingsworth.
