108: The Night of Terror: Women's Rights...

Audioboom Studios
About this episode
For this episode we follow the 72 year battle for women to have the right to vote. Women were tortured and imprisoned, but one night in history was especially brutal. Today The Night of Terror serves as a reminder of female solidarity and resistance. It is a reminder of how strong and powerful women are and just how much they are willing to fight and sacrifice for their rights.
