We at the Susan B. Anthony Birthplace Museum see historical research as a tool to help us better understand today’s social and political challenges.
We know that words cannot fix the deep wounds caused by centuries of injustice and violence, but we hope that by providing educational tools and historical resources we can help build a better future.
Over the coming weeks we will add a new page to our website featuring historical speeches and museum objects from the Abolition and Suffrage Movements, as well as age-appropriate book and movie lists which address the history of racial prejudice in the United States through 1920.

vintage tweets book release
About the book Vintage Tweets
The Woman Suffrage cause in the 19th and early 20th centuries, namely that women were citizens of the United States and had a right to shape the government and its laws through the vote, required being creative in means and in message. Communication both to the public and in the private sphere was essential. The postcard fulfilled those demands as the “tweets” of an earlier time. This book displays hundreds of vintage postcards from the collection of Carol N. Crossed. Always passionate and informative, sometimes humorous and satirical, these 100-year-old postcards communicate the intensity of the Woman’s Rights movement from both the supporters and the opposition. For more information: www.vintagetweetsbook.com/ SBABM & Connecting PointCassandra Peltier and Lucy Anthony Czaja met with interviewer and videographer Dave Fraser of WGBY who came to feature the museum. Thank you Carolee McGrath, of Connecting Points, for bringing attention to our hometown heroine - Susan B. Enjoy in this segment - Remembering Women’s Rights Activist Susan B. Anthony.
