Our Daily Challenge: Famous Ghosts
The Declaration of Independence became a reality on July 4th, 1776. In this treasured document it states that “all men are created equal”, but alas they did not mean that to be true for women nor for slaves or any peoples of color. Women did not win the right to vote until 1920, a FULL 144 years later. Unfortunately that right was not given easily. Many brave women endured beatings and jail for the simple desire to vote like a man. I thank these courageous women who fought for women’s suffrage. My intent in this image was to depict the famous ghosts of all those hard suffering women. I once again honor their memories by voting in this election and all elections. I also implore all to vote especially women. We have a strong voice if we all exercise our rights and let our leaders know our wishes. Please, Ladies, VOTE!
Thank you so much for your views, comments and favs. I really do appreciate every one!
