Inspired by Alice Paul

I watch Iron Jawed Angels this week. a movie about the young suffragette women's group led by Alice Paul (Hilary Swank) and Lucy Burns (Frances O'Connor). In the movie the women band together to wheedle the United States into adapting a Constitutional amendment guaranteeing women the right to vote. 
SUCH a good movie (i gave it all 5 stars on my Netflix raiding) The story was moving and inspiring. I couldn't get over the amazing scarifies these women gave and the obstacles they overcame for the future generations of women to have equal rights as men. 
This is story is inspiring me.....
