And then I had to go and read all about the US women's suffrage movement and Alice Paul, because I'm more familiar with Emmeline Pankhurst here in the UK.<br /><br />This is after I'd told my other half to shut up, because he was shouting "Why are you watching Lady Gaga?" from the kitchen. Where he was cooking tea. Because I'm alive in 2012 and I have a job and the right to vote and housework is (more-or-less) equally shared and we don't have to worry about being married or anything.

Time. <br /><br />I somehow missed your "no apologies" post, so thanks for linking back to it. Great song--video would have been even better without the bizarro ending, but just the audios are fantastic as they are. The things that were so crucial to both those videos were the music and the actors; if they had not had such moving faces for the leads, or such incredible voices to carry the passion of the "stories," these would be so much less powerful.Blessedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09079902364989480862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724594058209899258.post-5738340608805495862012-03-17T13:43:14.290-04:002012-03-17T13:43:14.290-04:00You are right, it's nigh impossible not to tea...You are right, it's nigh impossible not to tear up which is annoying because I have roommates and I'M SUPPOSED TO BE STRONG DANG IT!<br /><br />Also, have you seen the fifth grade girl who sings the <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8kzb7OwOd7Y&feature=related" rel="nofollow">Bill of Rights to Poker Face</a>? (Can't remember where I got linked to it, but searching Epbot doesn't pull anything up so I feel safe pointing you to it.) It's not the most well-put-together thing in the world, but she did an awesome job rewriting the lyrics. And I love her, because this is exactly how I learned half my schoolwork growing up (12th grade civics: rewriting all the Schoolhouse Rock songs to include EVERYTHING!)Kaytohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18334341334958450969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724594058209899258.post-9717617126682502172012-03-17T12:05:57.075-04:002012-03-17T12:05:57.075-04:00I highly recommend watching the movie Iron Jawed A...I highly recommend watching the movie Iron Jawed Angels, it is about that era and movement and is horrifyingly realistic.

I don't know what it's like in the States, but the SAD thing was that once women got the right to vote, hardly any of them exercised it. Even today voter turnout is rediculously low. If those women who fought so hard could see what we've done with their sacrifice, they'd be badly shocked! :PMichelleHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15620214611586302175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724594058209899258.post-34775481626126519832012-03-16T19:58:26.994-04:002012-03-16T19:58:26.994-04:00I found both of these a couple weeks ago, and I al...I found both of these a couple weeks ago, and I already shared them with my students.
