🌟 Celebrate International Women’s History Month with us as we spotlight Febb Burn, a determined mother whose actions played a crucial role in the Women’s Suffrage Movement. 🗳️ Learn how her letter to her son was a turning point in securing the 19th Amendment, which gave women the right to vote. Febb is one of many women who courageously fought for women’s suffrage over the decades, culminating in the Tennessee legislature’s vote to ratify the amendment in 1920, giving proponents the necessary approval from two thirds of states.

This is a sneak peek of our upcoming Constitution 101 Course, launching in September. We’re grateful to the National Constitution Center for their partnership in creating this course. Stay tuned for more inspiring stories and insights! 📜
