In 1920, women wearing yellow roses stood shoulder to shoulder in Tennessee, awaiting the roll call of men who would cast their votes for or against a woman's right to a voice in government. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Though this movement won rights for some women--an achievement to be acknowledged and celebrated--the struggle did not end there. Due to states' laws and prohibitive policies, many women of color were unable to exercise their rights after the Nineteenth Amendment. It was not until much later that all American women were given the same privilege. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e In \u003ci\u003eA Yellow Rose Project: Responses, Reflections, and Reactions to the Nineteenth Amendment\u003c\/i\u003e, editors Meg Griffiths and Frances Jakubek have invited 106 female photographers to look back upon this part of history from various perspectives.
