Conversations In Indiana African American History and Culture

Freetown Village

Join our monthly conversation with historians, researchers, and educators as we discuss topics related to Indiana’s Black heritage.

Indiana Landmarks Center

Charlene Fletcher, Assistant Professor of History Department of History, Anthropology, and Classics, Butler University, will discuss “Club Women - a Seat at the Table: African American Women and the Right to Vote”.The 19th Amendment, passed in 1920, granted voting rights to women in the United States, and Americans often celebrated it as a triumphant victory for women&#x27;s rights. Yet not all women - particularly Black women - could relish the victory. This workshop provides insight into how Black women in Indiana and around the country navigated the suffrage movement at the turn of the 20th century.Sponsored by Indiana Landmarks’ Black Heritage Preservation Program, Indiana Humanities, IUPUI Africana Studies Program, and ASALH Joseph Taylor Branch (Association of the Study of African American Life and History).<ul><li>In Person: Doors open at 5:30 p.m. at <a href="https://goo.gl/maps/DG1xcZq4MmVY6sRc9" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Indiana Landmarks Center</a> and talk begins at 6:00 p.m. </li></ul><ul><li>Online: Livestream will begin at 6:00 p.m. </li></ul>
