Stories from the Ballot & Beyond podcast
Due to Maryland’s proximity to the Capital, suffragists often hosted rallies before heading south to the White House, protested at the State House in Annapolis, and even hosted Susan B. Anthony for her last public speech at Baltimore’s Lyric Theatre.
Because the women’s suffrage movement was largely racially segregated, Baltimore’s African American citizen activists organized parallel rallies and played important roles in leading citizenship training workshops focused on the next steps of enfranchisement for Maryland’s women of all colors and creeds. Notably, Maryland’s own Frederick Douglass was also a vocal suffragist and ally to the movement.
To tell these stories, this Ballot and Beyond partnership project will highlight the remarkable lives of Maryland’s women past and present in audio segments, essays, and historic images.
