505 Hawley Ave., Syracuse

Katja von Garnier's film Iron Jawed Angels tells the remarkable and little-known story of a group of passionate and dynamic young women, led by Alice Paul (Hilary Swank) and her friend Lucy Burns (Frances O'Connor), who put their lives on the line to fight for American women's right to vote.

Joining us for this screening will be special guest, Dr. Susan Goodier. The SUNY Oneonta professor specializes in woman suffrage activism from 1840 to 1920, and is the author of the new book coauthored with Karen Pastorello, Women Will Vote: Winning Suffrage in New York State (Cornell University Press 2017).
