Crystal Eastman (1881-1928) was unrelenting in her fight for equality. When the Nineteenth Amendment was ratified in 1920, after years of fighting for the right of women to vote, she wrote: “Men are saying perhaps ‘Thank God, this everlasting fight is over!’ But women, if I know them, are saying, ‘Now at last we can begin.’” She understood that gaining the right to vote was the first step in something much bigger.
