As we talk about the centennial of suffrage this month, you may wonder what did that actually look like here? In the latest episode of the virtual tour of the A Voice of Her Own exhibit at South Carolina State Museum we’ll see that South Carolina women were having suffragette parades, running a newspaper and even wearing bloomers – all as political statements.
