Alice Paul!

By , January 11, 2016 1:27 pm

Today’s Google doodle is in honor of the pioneering suffragist, feminist, and labor rights activist, Alice Paul (1885-1977). Paul was instrumental in getting the 19th amendment passed. Radicalized by her sojourn in England she helped to galvanize the movement in the US in the 1910s.  “There will never be a new world order until women are a part of it.” She was right.
