Kent Chronicles Suffrage and Prohibition

This exploration examines the interconnected movements of women's suffrage and Prohibition, highlighting their shared roots in social reform during the 19th and early 20th centuries. Notable figures such as Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, and Frances Willard emerged as pioneers in these movements, learning from abolitionists and each other's struggles. The 18th and 19th Amendments, alongside the rise of organizations like the National American Woman Suffrage Association and the Anti-Saloon League, underscore the complex dynamics of change. The unintended consequences of Prohibition reveal the challenges faced by these reform movements.
