🗳️ On this day in 1922, the U.S. Supreme Court unanimously ruled in Leser v. Garnett, dismissing Oscar Leser's challenge to the 19th Amendment and cementing women's right to vote as the law of the land — even in states that refused to ratify it.

They are trying to repeal Women's right to vote so we need to bring this back. It will be easier to stop them from taking our vote than it will be to get the vote back. #GenXAds #WomensSuffrage

A historic black-and-white photograph of suffragist and physician Anna Howard Shaw in her later years, taken during a celebratory moment outside. She is wearing full academic regalia, including a dark doctoral gown with velvet panels and three velvet bars on the sleeves, and a mortarboard cap with tassel. Shaw, an older woman with short white hair and a warm, triumphant smile, is raising her right arm high in a joyful wave or victory gesture. The background shows a crowd of people and a large brick building, capturing her as a celebrated figure who overcame immense barriers to become one of the first ordained female Methodist ministers in the U.S., a medical doctor, and a leading voice in the fight for women's suffrage. The image radiates pride, resilience, and the spirit of achievement.
Anna Howard Shaw was born #OTD in 1847.
Pioneering American suffragist, physician, ordained minister & one of the most influential leaders in the #womenssuffrage movement.
Earned her MD (1886, only woman in her class) & one of the first women ordained as a Methodist minister in the US (1880).

The Mud March did not secure the vote, but it did prove that women could organize publicly, command attention, and claim political space without abandoning restraint. It laid the groundwork for everything that came after.
