Album Description
Women’s suffrage curriculum taught in public K-12 schools does not tell the full story. Black women, along with other women of color, were excluded from the greater women’s suffrage agenda and barred from joining almost all women’s suffrage clubs and associations. Therefore, Black women formed their own clubs and associations to advocate for racial uplift and civil rights as well as equal rights for Black women, including suffrage. I chose this topic because it provides a missing perspective on the women’s suffrage movement that is not always considered or widely known.

Black women have been no stranger to organizing since America’s earliest inception. But it would be during the Reconstruction era that Black women were able to elevate their messaging and form their own group called the Women’s Club.
Focused on holding America to its founding principles, women across the country gathered to highlight injustices like lynching. The success of these meetings led to the formation of the National Association of Colored Women, where the group’s scope widened to include issues, such as voting rights, housing, and other race-related matters. Despite many male figures protesting women as they utilized their voices, the Women’s Club movement became a vital part in supporting women and their right to speak and organize.
In this episode of Black History in Two Minutes or So hosted by Henry Louis Gates Jr. — with additional commentary from Daina Ramey Berry of the University of Texas, Evelyn Brooks Higginbotham of Harvard University and Imani Perry of Princeton University — we look at how women uplifted one another as they climbed their way to the top.
Black History in Two Minutes (or so) is a 4x Webby Award winning series.

Reference note
'In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Black American Women were struggling with both racism and misogyny as they fought for their rights. Black Women formed clubs and organized to make sure civil and political rights were extended to ALL Black people, not just Black men. These clubs were grass-roots organizations of middle-class women who were often only one generation removed from slavery. Today we'll learn about the origins of these clubs and some of the notable women who drove this movement.
