It's that time of year again! For the 3rd year in a row, the Transformative Justice Coalition and the Voting Rights Alliance, in honor of Black History Month, is reprinting its #VRABlackHistory series (originally created in 2017; all articles updated in 2018). All month long, we will share the legacies and stories of the heroes, sheroes, and events in the fight for Black suffrage on social media under the hashtag #VRABlackHistory. Follow us on Twitter  ( @VRAmatters ) to share your own facts. This year, we will add another 8 articles to this series!

Today we honor Lucretia Mott, who played a vital role in organizing the 1848 Women’s Right’s Convention at Seneca Falls, which launched the woman’s suffrage movement. She advocated her entire 40 years of life for African-American women and all people to have equal rights in politics and many other areas of everyday life.
