Oregon suffragists visit New York, 1912, from the Library of Congress collection. These women very much wanted to be seen, just as Oregon women today are gearing up for their anniversary of women voting in 2012. You can Twitter their events: Oregon Women Vote @CenturyofAction.

I like how specialized events like Oregon’s centennial use social media.
This is American history, not just Oregon history.
That’s a great COA logo… would it be possible to use it? I’m helping a woman who when elected will be the first female in the county to be elected commissioner. Just would be an appropriate use for her.
