National Woman's Party

The National Woman’s Party was an organization founded in 1916 that fought for women’s suffrage in the United States. Led by Alice Paul, it used strategic protests, demonstrations, and lobbying to push for the 19th Amendment, which granted women the right to vote. The party was known for its assertive tactics, like picketing the White House, to draw attention to gender equality. Its efforts contributed significantly to women gaining voting rights, making it a key player in the women’s rights movement during the early 20th century.
