Do you know these incredible women?
Today, we honor the incredible contributions of five Black women who played a vital role in the fight for women's right to vote. Their courage and dedication paved the way for countless others. On the anniversary of the 19th Amendment, let’s celebrate their legacy and continue to champion the rights they fought so hard to secure. Join us: naacp.org/volunteer
