The variety of perspectives and backgrounds represented in the volume is extraordinary ... Capturing the spirit and purpose of a pivotal period in American history, this stirring collection honors the forward-thinking women who fought hard to win the vote.”—BookPage“The most comprehensive intersectional anthology of writing about the women’s suffrage movement published to-date... Not only does The Women’s Suffrage Movement expose readers to the long-neglected intersectional history of women’s rights in America—celebrating the activism and writing of not just these Indigenous women, but women of a wide diversity of races and classes—it also serves as a reminder to readers that political gains once won can be lost, that rights and freedoms once enjoyed can be swiftly taken away if we stop paying attention.”—Bustle

A Review of The Women’s Suffrage Movement by Dr. Sally Roesch Wagner (Foreword by Gloria Steinem) Dr. Sally Roesch Wagner was one of the first PhD’s in Women’s Studies, writing her dissertation on Matilda Joslyn Gage (for whom she is the official biographer). She was also one of the founders of the Women’s Studies Program at California State University, Sacramento and the founder of the Gage Museum in Fayetteville, NY. Sally and I have been friends and colleagues for nearly fifty years, and it is with great pleasure that I introduce you to her newest book, The Women’s Suffrage Movement (published by Penguin and available March 2019). When I told a friend that I was reading The Women’s Suffrage Movement, my friend replied, “I would think that that subject had been exhausted by now, that nothing new could be said about the Suffrage Movement.” If you, like my friend, think we know all there is to know about the 19th century women’s movement, you are so wrong. Sally offers and analyzes information about feminism in the 19th century that has never been told before. When Sally was in graduate school she discovered that a neighbor in her home town in South Dakota was the granddaughter of Matilda Joslyn Gage and had her grandmother's papers and other historical documents in her attic. These materials opened a whole new view of the 19th century women’s movement (along with many years of original source research) which Sally shares with us in her new book. Sally was once asked in a job interview how she approached her work as a historian. She replied, “I talk to dead people.” And now thanks to Sally’s careful and insightful research, she allows us to do the same, with her astute and candid guidance and translation. Sally does what many historians fail to do: she presents us with original source materials (which she gives to us so we can draw our own conclusions); she aligns the stories with analysis but leaves judgement to us as readers and offers an intersectional view of history that includes actors often written out of mainstream history. While most feminist histories focus largely (or even entirely) on white women, this book examines the influences of indigenous women and the organizing of Black women including what was done prior to Seneca Falls. The metaphor most frequently used to describe the different generations of feminism is the wave. Nineteenth century was the first wave, 20th century the second wave and now is the third or fourth wave (depending upon the current interpretation). Sally, however, explains history not as a wave, implying non-differential movement in one direction, but rather as a puzzle with each unique piece developing a complete picture. Unfortunately most of us were taught a linear, white, patriarchal, fantasized version of US history. The puzzle metaphor explains that all participants are a piece and without each version of the story (puzzle) the picture is incomplete. One extremely important point that Sally makes early in the book is that what is termed the Suffrage Movement was about much more than the vote. Much like contemporary feminists, our foremothers were fighting for economic parity, married women’s property rights, freedom from violence, sexual liberty and many other parallel issues. Also like the current movement, feminism wasn’t monolithic. Deep divisions arose particularly around the levels of radicalism participants wanted to exhibit, the strategies for ending slavery (remember most early feminists were also abolitionists) and most importantly what principles and values would govern their actions. These conflicts resulted in splintering of organizations, unlikely alliances and racist tactics. Fortunately Sally dispels the bifurcated, “two-sides to the story” view of history in favor of the many sides. When members of organizations disagreed about strategies, they would often start new organizations to continue the fight, demonstrating that sometimes conflict clarifies and allows for theoretical growth. Having been involved in movement politics for the past fifty years, I saw many parallels between the 19th and 20th century movement. The current Women’s Movement continues to deal with issues like expediency vs. principles, radicalism vs. reform, racism, heterosexism, who speaks for the movement, the function of separatism, just to name a few. For that reason alone, it is important to learn our herstory, to learn what has come before us. One of the things I love most about Sally’s writing is how accessible it is. She does not get lost in academese. Her writing is straight forward and she backs up her assertions with materials written at the time, including conflicting stories of the same events. Some years back, Sally wrote a book entitled A Time of Protest, about several social justice movements happening simultaneously in the 19th century (feminism, anti-slavery, labor, even animal rights) and I assigned it in my Women’s Studies classes. My students, many of whom groaned when told they would have to read a history book, loved Sally’s book. I predict students will have the same response to The Women’s Suffrage Movement.So whether you are a feminist wanting to know your roots, a history buff, an academic or someone interested in the development of movements, this book is for you.The reviewer is a professor emeritus from California State University, Sacramento who taught Women’s Studies for thirty years. She also owned and operated Lioness Books, Sacramento’s feminist bookstore, from 1980-2000 and was actively involved with the Feminist Bookstore Network.
