Happy close to Women's History Month, listeners! Tara and EmKay dive into the rich history of women's suffrage, led in part by the incredible Matilda Joslyn Gage. Matilda worked closely with Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton in the fight for women's equality, but was unfortunately written out of history due to her radical goal of including ALL women in the fight. On top of all that, she was the mother-in-law of one L. Frank Baum!

Join as Tara and EmKay break down Angelica Shirley Carpenter's biography of Matilda, "Born Criminal," and highlight the amazing Matilda Joslyn Gage Center in Fayetteville, NY.

Stay tuned for an interview with Ciarrai Eaton, Interim Executive Director of the Matilda Joslyn Gage Center, dropping this Wednesday!
