Votes, Bank Accounts, and Boss Ladies: The Fight for Women’s Rights

In this episode of Secular Homeschool Revolution, 8-year-old host Cari takes us on a wild ride through the history of women’s voting rights and financial independence—with plenty of sass along the way! 💥 Did you know women weren’t legally allowed to vote in the U.S. until 1920? And that some women—especially Black, Indigenous, and other women of color—were still blocked from voting for decades? 😡 Oh, and get this—women couldn’t even open their own bank accounts until 1974. EXCUSE ME?! Cari breaks it all down, spilling the tea on the suffrage movement (including its messy side) and why voting rights STILL matter today. And if you’re up for a deep dive, check out The Vote (PBS American Experience)—it’s a great documentary for learning the real history.
