  • The perfect trinket box, this lovely porcelain piece is nicely sized for keeping your favorite tiny treasures. Show your support of strong American women throughout history, and the memory of Alice Paul and the very important work she did in pushing for women’s rights.

  • In 1915, American women were pushing for equal rights, particularly the right to vote in national elections. They lectured, wrote, marched, lobbied, and practiced civil disobedience to achieve what many Americans considered a radical change of the Constitution. Finally, Congress passed on June 4, 1919, and ratified on August 18, 1920, the Nineteenth Amendment, which guarantees all American women the right to vote. The Nineteenth Amendment Joint Resolution of Congress and many other records related to women’s equal rights are preserved and protected in the National Archives.
