Women, as a general rule, were silenced and oppressed for many, many years. This class will talk about this and how women suffered at the hands of their oppressors beyond just wanting the right to vote. We will also touch on the fact that some of the women who fought for this cause refused to eat as an act of protest and, subsequently, were forced. As with all of my classes, I understand the tender nature of these topics and it is my commitment to you to deliver them with grace, grit, and truth.
