Growing up, women’s suffrage was taught to me as a thing that women very nobly demonstrated for and rightfully earned during a period of the United States just kind of getting naturally more progressive at the beginning of the twentieth century.

We all know Woodrow Wilson was a racist bastard, but Suffs will make you hate him for more reasons still.
