Evolution of suffrage after the US revolution | HBR Talk 310
from Honey Badger Radio · host Honey Badger Brigade
As we discussed last week, the US revolution, planned though it was, was a desperate fight for liberty. The country’s battle involved conscription from the beginning. The revolutionary army, mostly comprised of grown men, also included many boys in important capacities that made them targets of the British military, a few as young as 7. Women followed their family members in the revolutionary army, and acted in support capacities. A few, in desperate situations, took up arms and fought. And then what happened? That’s what we’re discussing this week on HBR Talk
