SUMMARY:Frank Leslie Buys Women's Votes
DESCRIPTION:Carrie Chapman Catt said that the passage of New York State’s Women’s Suffrage Amendment in 1917 was the “Gettysburg of the Women’s Suffrage movement.” Yet just two years earlier\, New York State had voted the same measure down. What changed in two short years? One of the major differences was money. Where did the money come from? Enter Frank Leslie — just one of eight names Miriam Leslie would have during her lifetime. Who was this woman who would leave nearly two million dollars to Catt to fund the fight for women’s suffrage? Where did her money come from? We’ll be exploring the whole fascinating story in this 30-minute Zoom presentation. Presented by Nancy Brown\, historian and educator. \n\n\n\nPre-registration is required to receive the link.
