OPB Radio’s Think Out Loud program recently aired a show on Aug. 26 focused on “The Political Power of Women“:

You’ll hear it all over the press this week: ninety years ago women across the United States won the right to vote. This came, of course, after a decades-long suffragist movement and after a slow progression of women gaining rights, state by state. In Oregon, women were actually granted the right to vote eight years before the 19th Amendment was ratified on August 26, 1920. To a large extent this was thanks to local activist Abigail Scott Duniway. . . .

This show did not feature a representative of Century of Action (CoA), but the conversation and online comments relate directly to many of the topics that the CoA project is covering. Also, CoA Project Director Jan Dilg posted a comment.
