Press Coverage of Women's Suffrage Movement

1913 Women's Suffrage March

1913 Women's Suffrage March

Washington, DC
Sunday, March 3, 2013

100 years ago, on March 3, 1913, thousands of American women marched down Pennsylvania Avenue to the White House in support of women’s suffrage. It was another seven years before women received the vote with the signing of the 19th Amendment, but the march marked a turning point in the movement. To commemorate the anniversary, journalists and authors gathered at the National Press Club to discuss the significance of the march and the national and international press coverage it received.
