14 Civil Disobedience Women spoke out for suffrage from horse-drawn wagons and street corner soapboxes. Some discussed politics in genteel tea parties, others were arrested for picketing for suffrage in front of the White House. Suffrage is the right to vote in public affairs.

15 Important Players Susan B. Anthony (1820-1906), abolitionist, temperance advocate, and later president of the National American Woman Suffrage Association, who joined with Stanton in 1851 to promote woman suffrage; proposed the constitutional amendment passed many years after her death. attempted to cast a vote, hoping to be arrested. She was arrested and indicted for "knowingly, wrongfully and unlawfully voting for a representative to the Congress of the United States." Found guilty and fined, she insisted she would never pay a dollar of it. Susan B. Anthony’s Petition To CongressSusan B. Anthony’s Petition To Congress Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815-1902), president of the National Woman Suffrage Association from 1865 to 1893; author of the woman's bill of rights, which she read at the Seneca Falls, New York, convention in 1848; first to demand the vote for women.

17 The War of the Roses The 19 th Amendment needed one more state to pass it to be ratified. Tennessee was that state. Tennessee was the site of a great political battle called The War of the Roses. People against the amendment wore red roses and people for the amendment wore yellow roses. On August 18, 1920, Tennessee ratified the amendment--the result of a change of vote by 24 year-old legislator Harry Burn (a member of the Tennessee General Assembly) who broke the deadlock vote in favor of ratification…at the insistence of his elderly mother.

18 Rep. Harry Burn On August 18, 1920, Tennessee ratified the amendment--the result of a change of vote by 24 year-old legislator Harry Burn.  A blatant red rose on his breast, Harry Burn--the youngest member of the Tennessee Assembly--suddenly broke the deadlock. Despite his red rose, he voted in favor of the bill. The house erupted into pandemonium. With his "yea," Burn had delivered universal suffrage to all American women. This photograph from the "Ratification Issue" of the Nashville Tennessean shows the Senate chamber at the moment that the clerk counted the historic vote on women's suffrage. With this vote, Tennessee became the 36th and deciding state to approve the 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, granting women the right to vote.

19 Rep. Harry Burn The outraged opponents to the bill began chasing Representative Burn around the room. In order to escape the angry mob, Burn climbed out one of the third-floor windows of the Capitol. Making his way along a ledge, he was able to save himself by hiding in the Capitol attic.
