Hey Ladies,

Upon doing some research for my era, I had some different ideas for how my display would be laid out. I'd like to know what you guys think.

I noticed that while there were far fewer women in politics in the earlier years following the 19th amendment, there were still a quite a few notable females in politics at the time. I was thinking that instead of only highlighting a few notable women of the time, I might also list some women in different areas of government (congress, senate, federal executives, etc.) and their positions as well as a timeframe of their service, while also highlighting some more notable/active public figures in the same manner as I had already planned.

While this might be odd, I was also thinking of including one or two notable men who had played an active role in campaigning for women in office, as I believe the idea of a man willing to campaign for a woman in office was just as revolutionary as women themselves running for office at the time. I believe it would also show that women are not the only ones that can be active in the crusade for their own equality.

Would love your feedback!
