Today is the deadline for the @scbwi #narrativeartaward. I chose to represent women’s suffrage- not just the early years but the work that was done by WOC in the decades following, and of course there is more work ahead. #womensrights
Day 7 of #31days31womenwriters is Olivia Howard Dunbar (1873–1953). An active member of the women's suffrage movement, she wrote “The Shell of Sense” (1908) & “The Long Chamber” (1914), as well as criticism on the ghost story in her 1905 essay “The Decay of the Ghost in Fiction.”

Acrylic portrait of Susan B Anthony from the @usnatarchives Museum’s exhibition Rightfully Hers: American Women & the Vote.
Though the 19th Amendment wouldn’t be passed until 14 years after her death, Anthony is considered by many to be the face of the women’s suffrage movement.
My acrylic portrait of Florence Kelley from the @USNatArchives Museum’s exhibition Rightfully Hers: American Women & the Vote. To her, suffrage was the way women could ensure safety and freedom in the workplace, by winning the right to influence political action and legislation.
Tomorrow is election day. Don't let them buy your right to suffrage. #Elections2019
