Events › A Queer History of the Women's Suffrage Movement With Professor Rouse

The women’s suffrage movement was very queer. But the intimate lives of suffragists have been obscured and their history erased. Historian Wendy Rouse has pieced together fragmented clues from the archives to uncover the true story of the queer history of the suffrage movement.
