#WRBGFest20-The Suffrage Movement: The Age-Old Karen Problem with founder of Well-Read Black Girl Glory Edim and writer Evette Dionne
We're kicking off the Well-Read Black Girl festival with the special episode that: (1)celebrate Black women writers and readers (2) honors the unsung 'sheroes' that have contributed to the Black women's battle to the battle box.
A lot of our textbooks talk about the fight for women's right to vote and focus on the efforts of white women like Susan. B Anthony. But have you heard of Frances Harper or Hetty Reckless? In honor of the 100th anniversary of the passage of the 19th Amendment, guaranteeing women's constitutional right to vote- we discuss the numerous Black women who were pushed out of the mainstream suffrage movement by white leaders and how they made their own table.
In this episode, we uncover the key things we all should know about the Black women's journey to earn the right vote- both past and present and we find out that Karens go ALL the way back to the 1950s!
Join the conversation as we talk to Glory Edim, the founder of Well-Read Black Girl about #WRBGFest20, the theme and events; and as we talk to our special guest Evette Dionne, Author of "Lifting As We Climb: The Black Women's Battle to the Ballot Box."
Some topics covered include:
- How Well-Read Black Girl started
- What festival events you should check out this weekend
- When Karen first appeared in history
- What inspired Evette to write her book on "The Black Women's Battle for the Ballot Box"
- Why we SHOULDN'T vote shame
- What voting rights look like during COVID-19 and beyond
